Have fun with gift wrapping
Create original wrapping paper, be "eco" and recycle? And to entertain the children and enjoy time together? It can be done!
We have prepared a guide for you, which you may have also tried as a child. You will definitely find all the necessary items in a household with children.
What you need:
- potato
- gingerbread moulds
- knife
- brushes
- acrylic paints
- paper, paper bag, name tags
PROCEDURE:
- choose a suitable potato and halve it
- press a gingerbread mould into it
- cut the edges so that the height of the stamp is about 0.5 cm (do this step very carefully)
- apply acrylic paints to the "stamp" with a brush
- do not dilute the colours, apply a thin layer, a thick one would not push well and slide on the paper
- we managed to print the stamp 3 times before needing to paint it again, each time we got a less and less visible print
This is how you can prepare a beautiful and unique wrapping paper. The children will gladly help you and you will have fun together. You can tell them how you made such stamps yourself.
A wonderful activity for the pre-Christmas time with children. What you pack in this wrapping paper is up to you, and maybe it will also be things from us at JAPITEX.
Final tip:
You can also apply paint by creating a "stamp pad" from a dish sponge, which you fill with paint.
