Kids adore playing with card and paper, sticking, cutting and gluing (just like us adults!) Our paper and card is great quality, made in a sustainable way and made in the UK. Our Pick and Mix Boxes offer great value for money and your kids can choose their favourite colours.
Fun Ideas for Kids to Make with Paper and Card
DIY Kids Piggy Bank
A simple plastic bottle can be transformed into a kids piggy bank - or if pigs aren't their favourite why not use little brown ears for a bear or grey for a little mouse!
Details of how to make this diy kids piggy bank are over on Martha Stewarts website - here.
DIY Colourful Bookmarks
These would be perfect to make with our range of super colourful card! The full instructions to follow are found here.
Loo Roll Monsters
These fun little monsters are made using old toilet rolls - in the tutorial which you can find here, they paint the loo rolls, but you could also use coloured card to make these without the messy paint, just by rolling little tubes of card and attaching with a little tape. These googly eyes and pipe cleaners can be found in lots of craft shops and even stored like pound land.
Little Dog - Origami Gift Box
How sweet is this - you can have fun with a child making up one of these sweet little origami dogs - the beauty is you just need a sheet of paper or very lightweight card!
Instructions are here - origami tutorial
DIY Bookmark - Little Fox
This little fox bookmark just needs printing off, then you make a cut to create the flap for the face. The design is really simple and you could easily replicate this and make all sorts of fun little DIY bookmarks! The download is here if you love the little fox bookmark.
These little gift boxes would be great for an older or more able child - perfect for keeping hair bobbles or little treasures inside. The instructions for making them are available here - Origami Gift Box
