Tissue Paper Easter Flowers PDF Print E-mail
You will need:
Tissue paper in assorted colors
Green pipe cleaners (eight per child)
Scissors
Ribbon in assorted colors
Styrofoam blocks (optional)
Plastic or glass vases(optional)


1. Have the children take several sheets of paper. Roll them up together. Wrap one end of a pipe cleaner around the center of the tissue paper and twist to secure it.

2. Separate each sheet of paper, creating folds. Pull the edges up so that they surround the end of the pipe cleaner. If the paper is too long, cut it down.

3. Continue making flowers until the bouquet is finished. Wrap a piece of ribbon around the flowers.

4. If you want to put them in a vase, cut the Styrofoam to fit the bottom of the vase. Stick the pipe cleaner ends into it to keep the flowers from falling over.
