 A little background on this craft:


I just wanted to give a huge shout out to my friend Claudia, who made a cute paper pull craft for preschoolers at our church. I loved the craft so much that I had to design my own for you!

To see how the craft works, watch this video: 




Let's Make this Rainbow Paper Pull Craft!


Step 1:
Draw your own images, or just print out my free Rainbow, leprechaun, and hot air balloon doodles.

Step 2: 
Color your images in.

Step 3: 
Cut the images out.

(Tip: You don't need to cut the shapes exactly on the outlines. Preschoolers will probably need some help cutting out the hot air balloon and the leprechaun.)

Step 4:
Now it's time to grab

  • a hole puncher
  • a pair of scissors
  • yarn
  • some pony beads
  • clear tape (or glue stick)
  • giant popsicle stick


Step 5:
Tape your rainbow to your popsicle stick.

Step 6:
Punch two holes in your rainbow.

Step 7:
Cut a strand of yarn. Tie a pony bead to one end of the yarn. Slip the untied end through one of your punched holes and then tape your paper image to the yarn.

Step 8:
Repeat step 7 to secure the other image.

This is what your craft will look like from the front.
