Top 5 Objects to Create Using Dr Seuss Coloring Pages
My children love all sorts of projects that involve Dr Seuss coloring pages. I often use these illustrations to discuss various topics with my kids, teach them to tell engaging stories, and show them how to create lovely DIY crafts using the materials at hand.
Photo Frames
Find a simple photo frame at a local store. Use the cut-outs from Dr Seuss coloring pages to personalize it and give it a unique look. This project will appeal to those who like displaying family photos at home and want to add bright accents to their interiors. We also use such frames for simple collages. Print smaller illustrations to ensure they fit on the borders. Add some glitter to achieve a magical effect. Paper ornaments will make your items more decorative.
The whole project won’t take you longer than half an hour. You can also use these frames as lovely gifts for your child’s grandparents. Youngsters will be thrilled to create such a nice and practical item.
Paper Puppets
If you want to create simple finger puppets, find a piece of felt and create a simple band. Be sure to take exact measurements. You should be able to wrap the band around your child’s finger. Once you have completed Dr Seuss coloring pages, cut out the figures you want to use for your home puppet theater. Use some glue to attach them to the rings. You may also sew them to the base to ensure they are securely attached. Once, we decided to glue wiggle eyes to the puppets, and this gave them a fun look.
This project does not require much money. Every child will be able to create such puppets without assistance. Be sure to keep them supervised if they need help. Show them how to use glue safely. You may also glue larger cut-outs to wooden sticks to organize an improvised theater.
Festive Garland
This idea is excellent for all sorts of celebrations. Cut out triangular-shaped flags from the sheets of colored paper. Decorate each flat with the cut-outs from the Dr Seuss coloring pages you have finished. Choose different characters — add some variety to your decorations. Then, attach the flags to the rope or a long string. Hang it across the room or above the windows. You may also use these flags outdoors if the weather is nice.
Decorative paper flags will grab the attention of your guests. Display your child’s artwork for everyone to see. Such accessories are the best choice for birthday parties. Moreover, these garlands will look great in the classroom settings. It won’t cost you much to buy some colored paper and glue. The design depends on your imagination. You may also create rectangular-shaped flags.
Carnival Masks
Do you want to organize a costume party? Use cut-outs from large-format Dr Seuss coloring pages. Create beautiful masks for every occasion. Whether you want to organize a theater play or play engaging games, you will enjoy working on this project. Enlarge characters’ faces to ensure they are big enough to cover a child’s face. Print them and cut them out. Be sure to cut out eye holes accurately. It’s better to measure the distance between the eyes to make the right holes. Glue the cut-out to the cardboard. Use an elastic band to make wearing a mask easier.
Use wooden sticks to save time. Attach them to the bottom of each mask so that ribbons do not unwrap or a rubber band doesn’t break. Your child will be able to hold the mask in front of their face when portraying a character.
Greeting Cards
This idea will never lose its popularity. You can use Dr Seuss coloring pages to personalize holiday greeting cards and postcards with birthday wishes. Cut out small figures. Glue them to a postcard. Add extra elements to fill out the empty space. Draw intricate patterns, write warm wishes inside. Use glitter to decorate the front. Your child’s friends will be thrilled to get a greeting card with the figures of popular characters.
