What you need:
- pencil
- paper
- scissors
- crayons
Activity:
- Fold paper, accordion-fashion.
- The number of folds in the paper determines the number of people in the chain.
- On the top piece of the folded paper, draw a person whose hands extend to touch the folds of the paper on each side.
- Carefully cut around the person, making sure not to cut where the hands meet the folds.
- Open up the paper and your child will have a chain of several people holding hands.
- Colour them in with crayons, make different expressions on each face, or create a themed group.
- Kids enjoy creating a replica of their family, so make sure you have enough folds to include whoever your child would like in the family group.
