Holiday craft projects for kids


I found this simple project for you to enjoycrafting with your kids....

Designer: Katrina Simeck

It's easy and fun as you head down to the park or beach on a bright summer day and fly a kite you’ve made yourself!

With these super simple papercrafting kite instructions, you can make dozens of fun kites to fly high!

Instructions

1. Trim a piece of patterned paper or cardstock to 8.5 x 11

2. Trim the edges of the paper using a Border punch


3. Fold the paper in half, forming an 5.5 x 8.5 rectangle.

4. Fold one edge of the paper diagonally, then fold one side out forming a kite shape.

5. Use adhesive to attach a bamboo skewer to help maintain shape.

6. Use a variety of punches to decorate your kite.

7. Fold the “spine” of the kite several times to ensure that it stands on it’s own –

then punch one hole, and adhere string

or ribbon



Have fun with different colors and patterns of paper, and a variety of punched shapes. This is a great project for kids to complete – Adults, you

simply need to help fold. Enjoy your kite flying!
