Get crafty with your kids by making simple rolled paper beads.
Along with creating something really sweet, you'll use all those
random bits of paper hanging around your house. Your child will
love cutting the paper and seeing what happens once it's rolled.
Try using newspaper, pages from magazines, old artwork, or even
junk mail. Using scissors hones fine motor skills, and
everything is always more fun with glue! Your child can string
unique necklaces for loved ones or lace on a colorful ribbon to
decorate plain windows. Click here to get crafting! What You'll
Need: - Construction paper - Enlist your child to gather scraps
of colorful paper to use for making rolled paper beads. Any kind
of paper will work — newspaper, pages from magazines, pieces of
construction paper, or even old artworks! - Have your child cut
long triangles from the paper starting from an edge and cutting
up to the other. Now he can cut the second side of the triangle,
creating a long obtuse triangle about 1 inch wide at the base. -
