Bubble Wrap Rainbow Craft

This Bubble Wrap Rainbow Craft is an easy and fun recycled craft idea!

For this rainbow craft we’re using 2 recycled materials with an addition of a few basic craft supplies. Kids will have loads of fun creating their rainbows using the bubble wrap! It’s super fun to first, paint the bubble wrap and second, to stamp it onto the cardboard 😊 And don’t forget the little clouds made from cotton rounds! This is such a sweet little craft idea. My kids surely loved it and I know yours will too!

Materials for bubble wrap rainbow craft:

• Bubble wrap
• Cardboard
• Washable kids paint
• Paintbrushes
• Cotton rounds
• Glue stick

 

Instructions:

• Start by cutting the bubble wrap to match the size of the cardboard you’ll be using.
• Using the paintbrush and washable paint, paint a rainbow on the bubble wrap.
• Stamp the bubble wrap onto the cardboard and let the paint dry a bit.
• Once the paint is dry, use the glue stick to glue on the cotton rounds to make the clouds. I got a bit creative and cut out cloud shapes from the cotton rounds. 

 

What is my child learning and improving?

• Colors (this is a great craft to talk about the colors of the rainbow!)
• Fine motor skills (using the paintbrush to paint on the rainbow)
• Hand-eye coordination (painting the rainbow)
• Creativity (kids are using recycled materials in a new and interesting way!)
