How adorable are these PAPER WEATHER CRAFTS? We think it is the sweetest and perfect as a Spring craft now the weather is warming up and we’re beginning to venture outside a little more. We’ve made a sunshine, rain cloud (got to love those April showers!) and a rainbow too! The designs sit off the page a little giving a lovely 3D effect and we just adore those 3D heart shaped raindrops! So cute!
Each of these weather craft ideas comes with a free printable template if you want it, although the ideas are simple enough to do without too.
We love how versatile these weather crafts are. You could use them to mount on the wall for a weather display or to decorate your weather chart. They’d also look adorable stuck to the front of greeting cards and you could even hang them up to make a DIY weather mobile too!
Why not team them up with our Sunshine Wand, Rainbow Blowers and Rainbow Sky Sensory Play Idea? They’d also go really well with these fun weather experiments from Weather Wiz Kids.
