Spring is coming! Check out this blog to learn how to make this rain drop craft for kids!

Rain drop craft for kids is the perfect spring craft! If you’ve been searching for a cute and simple spring craft for your kids or classroom, this is it. My kids made this adorable rain drop craft for kids at our favorite Library Story Hour and they really enjoyed the process. I love simple crafts that you can do with minimal supplies and probably already have the supplies for at home.

Why this is a great craft for kids

This rain drop craft is perfect for kids because it includes scissor and gluing practice. This means lots of fine motor practice for your child, which is essential for their development! This craft is great for your toddler or preschooler so keep reading to learn how to make it.

Rain Drop Craft for Kids:

Now without further ado, let’s get into this fun spring craft for kids! Here’s what you’ll need to create this project:

  • Dark Blue Construction Paper
  • Light Blue Construction Paper
  • White Construction Paper
  • Blue Yarn
  • Glue
  • Scissors

Here’s what to do:

Have your child cut out a cloud shape from the white paper (you could trace the shape for younger children to help guide them.) Then glue the top half of the cloud down, as you’ll want to glue the yarn underneath the bottom part of the cloud.

Glue the yarn under the cloud and let them hang. Finish gluing the cloud down.

Next cut out raindrop shapes from the light blue paper. You could have these pre-cut or, like the cloud, trace the shape so your child has some guidance when cutting. Now add your raindrops to the bottom of the yarn.

And (as my daughter would say,) “TA-DA!” A cute little rain drop craft for spring time. Because it rains….a lot…in the spring.

And one last comment, this is probably what the craft will really look like when your child completes it:

Final thoughts

That’s it! Pretty simple huh? I love an easy spring craft for kids! Remember it’s not about the end product, it’s about the process. Your toddler’s craft won’t look “perfect” or “correct” and that’s ok. There is no right way to make art! What matters is your child has fun, is practicing these very important hand skills, and continues to be excited about getting getting creative.

*Note: If you wanted, you could write each letter of your child’s name on a rain drop and have him/her glue the raindrops in the correct order.
