Frozen Inspired Crafts For Kids

I think there is something special about a homemade gift. The thought, the effort and the act that has gone into making a gift for someone make it extra special. The kids and I have come up with a few gifts we made that we can give to someone this Christmas for this month’s Tots 100 #BostickBlogger craft. Let me know what you think of them. 

Frozen Inspired Crafts For Kids – Paper Snowflake

What you’ll need:-

• Bostik Glitter Glue
• White Paper
• Scissors

Step 1

Fold the top part of the paper down to make a square for the snowflake.

Step 2

Fold up the bottom part of the paper up to cut that section off. This is extra.

Step 3

When you cut the bottom section off you will have a perfect square.

Step 4

Fold your square piece of paper twice so it is a smaller square.

Step 5

Have the folded sections of the square to the bottom before you begin to cut our your snowflake.

Step 6

Cut out how you want your snowflake design. Make sure you keep the folded edges to the bottom so they don’t get cut.

Step 7

Unfold your snowflake and it will look similar to the above. Remember every snowflake is unique.

Step 8

Why not add a bit of sparkle to your snowflake. We used the Bostik Glitter Glue. They are the mess-free way to use glitter.

Step 9

Aren’t those pens fab? It’s up to you how you want to design the pattern. We gave a few of these a go, but this one was our favourite.

Step 10

Hang them up and you can make as many as you like. They will look great on the window.

We love Bostik Foam Pads to hang up our decorations. Having the double-sided stickers means they stick well and they hold fast. What do you think of our snowflake?

Frozen Inspired Kids Crafts – Folded Snowflake

What you’ll need:-

• Blue paper or decorated paper
• Bostik Foam Pads
• Scissors

Step 1

Start with a square piece of paper and cut it in half.

Step 2

Fold the paper into three. You will have two long rectangles.

Step 3

Fold the top bit underneath like above.

Step 4

Fold the bottom in the opposite direction.

Step 5

Fold the top and bottom section so that it looks like above.

Step 6

Do this to both pieces of paper. You have them looking like above.

Step 7

Place your two folded pieces of paper on top of each other in a criss-cross style.

Step 8

Fold the bottom section into the middle.

Step 9

Keep folding them over until you have all the triangles in the middle.

Step 10 

Once all folded it will look like above. You will need to hold it or it might pop open.

Step 11

Tuen the folded snowflake over.

Step 12

We found it easier to use a small amount of Bostik PVA Glue to secure.

Step 13

Here we have our folded snowflake. You can use any colour or decorated paper you wish.

Our folded Snowflake looks great hung up and we used the Bostik Foam Pads to hold in place. What colour would you make?

Frozen Inspired Crafts For Kids – 3D Snowflake

What You’ll Need:- 

• Bostik PVA Glue
• Bostik Foam Pads
• Decorated paper, coloured paper or white paper
• Scissors

Step 1

Cut your square of paper into four smaller squares.

Step 2

Take one of the squares and fold in half.

Step 3

Fold the square over again to make a small rectangle. Have it so that the folded part is to the bottom.

Step 4

Put two slits from the folded section up. Don’t cut all the way up.

Step 5 

When you open the square out, it will look like above.

Step 6

This part is a little tricky. Fold the middle slit over and glue with Bostik PVA Glue. I used closed scissors in the middle to hold this to glue.

Step 7

Turn the square over and glue the next slits together.

Step 8

Turn is over for the third time and glues the last two bits together. It will look like above.

Step 9

Repeat steps 1-8 at least 6 times. You should have quite a few to stick together to build your 3d snowflake.

Step 10

Stick the individual, folded squares together.

Step 11

Stick each side of the snowflake to the next one and carry on until they are all joined in a circle.

Step 12

You will have a beautiful big 3d snowflake like the one above. This is my favourite craft of the three.

Our 3D snowflake and now to decide where to put it. Or maybe create some more. Where would you hang yours?

Well, there you have our Frozen inspired crafts. What do you think of them? We’d love to see yours if you create some.

Pin for later.
