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.

Super easy and cute, right?
