Paper cup "flowers".
You can make a nice card using cupcake paper cups. Your child can color the cup with crayons, colored pencils, or markers, glue it to a card, and then draw a stem and a few leaves. To make it more interesting you can suggest that your child cut the sides of one cup and glue it into another or glue some other decorations into its center (there are many different possibilities). |

Paper gift box.
It's really easy to make a nice box out of a simple piece of paper. Print out a box layout. Ask your child to color it before cutting it out. To make a sturdier box, trace the printed out shape onto a thicker sheet of paper and then let your child color it. To make it a bit more interesting he can simply color it with colored pencils or markers or else draw some pictures on the sides. Then, help your child cut the shape out and fold it (use ruler to fold thicker paper). Glue the sides together. When the box dries, glue some beads or other decorative items to the sides. |

Cotton balls clouds.
Take 10-15 small cotton balls. Pour some white glue into a paper plate. Have your child touch the glue with a cotton ball and press the ball to the blue construction paper. After the "clouds" are ready, suggest that he paint or draw some rain drops and a few puddles with crayons (or markers).
