Umbrella Craft

I brought an umbrella to class during our 4 Season Theme. The kids loved it! We pretended to go out in a drizzle, then rain, then heavy rain and finally a storm. We imagined being dragged up, up, up in the air! 

Everyone wanted a turn to hold the umbrella. And when it was time to keep it, the kids begged to play with it more. 

So while I allowed them to explore more of the umbrella, I prepared a quick craft activity. 

I drew an umbrella and took out some craft sticks for handles.

You can download the template here.

Then some of the kids noticed what I was doing so We started painting.

We let it dry while we ate our snacks. I then cut out the umbrella and taped the craft stick on it.

Each kid had his/ her own umbrella!

Its time to go out in the rain!

But of course we have to pretend.

Rain seldom falls here in Qatar.
