Few things are more fun than spending an afternoon doing Flower Craft with paper. With a few sheets of colourful card, some glue and a little imagination, children can make their own cheerful paper flowers. Whether it’s a spring decoration, a Mother’s Day surprise or a pretty garden for the playroom, these handmade blooms bring a touch of sunshine to every corner.
Crafting with children is all about creativity – there’s no right or wrong way to do it. Folding, gluing, colouring or cutting, paper is one of the easiest and most versatile materials to work with. It’s affordable, comes in every shade imaginable, and lets little hands create something beautiful with very little help.

When doing Flower Craft with paper, templates are a brilliant way to get started. They help children follow shapes and patterns before they begin creating their own designs.
