Tissue paper Easter palm
- ages 3–15
- 45 min
Children make colorful palms out of tissue paper and boxwood and talk about Easter traditions.
Steps
- A short conversation about Easter palms and regional customs (e.g. Kurpian palms).
- Children roll flowers out of colorful tissue paper.
- They tie them together with boxwood sprigs or dried grasses to a stick.
- They wrap the whole thing with a ribbon.
- Finally, a comparison of the palms and a group photo.
Tip: Instead of a thick stick, a skewer stick works well for younger children, as the palm is lighter.
Materials needed
- Colorful crepe paper (1 pack per group)
- Colorful ribbon (1 roll)
- Dried decorative grasses (1 bunch per group)
