How to Make Paper Roll Flower Painting for Kids
What you need:
- paper roll
- pencil
- scissors
- acrylic paints (yellow, pink, black, and green)
- paintbrush
- paper plate or a paint mixing tray
- white paper
- googly eyes
Step by Step Tutorial
Prepare a thicker craft paper or regular print paper (although this one might wrinkle).
Sketch petal shapes on top of the paper roll or just cut into the roll without the outline.
Start cutting along the lines.
Cut all around to create a flower-shaped stamp.
Start bending the petals outward.
This way, you’ll form a flower shape.
Pour paint onto a plate or tray.
Dip the paper roll flower into the paint.
Then press it onto the blank paper to create colorful flower prints.
We created three of them.
Let the paint dry, then use a paintbrush to fill the flower’s centers with yellow paint.
Use green paint to add stems and leaves to your flowers.
Kids can use different shades of green if they wish.
Draw smiles on the flowers.
Then attach googly eyes for a playful touch.
Let the paint dry completely, and enjoy your cheerful paper roll flower painting!
