Chinese New Year Bracelet
At Chinese New Year children are given brand new, colourful clothes to wear,
and red is regarded as an especially lucky colour. Your kids can have a go making
this Chinese New Year bracelet as part of their own Chinese New Year
celebration!
You will need:
Red craft foam
Hook and eye fasteners
Gold glitter glue
Instructions:
Cut a rectangle of craft foam 1 inch wide and long enough to go around your
wrist with an inch to spare. If you like you can cut the edges of the rectangle
into a pattern.
Stick the eye fastening to one end of the front of the bracelet, and stick the
hook fastening to the back of the bracelet at the other end.
Use the glitter glue to draw Chinese characters along the bracelet. You can find
lots of Chinese characters to use for
inspiration here. Make sure you let the glitter glue dry completely before
you put the bracelet on!
