Cotton Ball Clouds

When we sat down to do a craft this past weekend it had been raining nonstop the entire day. Both kids were restless and I was at my wits end. Luckily we were able to make this raincloud and save some of our sanity. As we created we sang "Rain, Rain Go Away" and other made up rain songs. The singing was entertaining and the raincloud turned out pretty cute.

What You Need

White Cardstock 

10-12  Cotton Balls

Yarn (5 pieces about 1 foot in length)

Construction Paper (for rain drops)

Glue

Scissors

Marker





What To Do

1. Using the marker draw a cloud onto the piece of white cardstock and cut it out.

2. Glue the pieces of yarn onto the cloud as pictured below.

3. Gently pull apart the cottonballs so that they are no longer round and glue onto your cloud.

4. Cut out tiny raindrops from the construction paper and glue onto the yarn as pictured.

5. Attach a magnet to the back or simply used a few pieces of double sided tape to hang.

Here is hoping that this is our last "rainy" day project. I am ready for some fun outdoors!
