9. Paper Strip Rainbows

This craft helps older daycare kids (4-5 year olds) practice their “looping” and gluing skills. It creates a beautiful 3D effect that looks great hanging from the ceiling.

  • Materials: Strips of construction paper (rainbow colors), cotton balls, glue.
  • Steps:
    • Glue the ends of the colored strips to a blue piece of paper in an arch.
    • Glue fluffy cotton ball “clouds” at both ends of the rainbow to hide the glue spots.
