Stained Glass
This stained glass kids game is a fun indoor activity/DIY project for your kids, and the result is beautiful! Just use contact paper to create a holiday keepsake to use every year!
Materials
- Construction Paper
- 1-2" tissue paper squares. Don’t have tissue paper squares? No problem! Cut your own or have your child rip tissue paper with you!
- Contact paper—I would suggest you visit the Dollar Tree if you frequent this activity as often as I do. Grab a few rolls there.
How To
- Trace your image (leaf, tree, pumpkin, heart, etc.)
- Cut the out the inside, leaving about an inch of a border.
- Cut an equal size portion of the contact paper, and tape it to a desk sticky side up.
- Place the cut out image on the contact paper.
- Set this activity up side by side with the tissue paper, and encourage your child to fill it in.
- When your child is finished, cut another portion of contact paper of equal size, and place it sticky side down on top of the image.
- Rub any air pockets out. I found using a cloth (or my sleeve) serves best.
- Lastly, cut out your shape and tape it to the window.
Tips with Miss Charlotte
You can make just about anything with this stained glass activity, and it never gets old. I do one for almost every holiday. From a leaf to pumpkin to a tree and a heart! You only need a few supplies.
