Paper Fun - Birthday in Lockdown
During the Shanghai lockdown in 2022, many kids were stuck at home, feeling bored and of course without enough supplies to celebrate birthdays. So, my friend Ning and I initiated a creative paper craft game for children. By simply printing out the templates we've designed, the kids can use these paper pieces make themselves a “birthday feast”!
Though this feast is not edible, the craft process is filled with humor and excitement. All the kids’ favorite foods, like fried chicken legs, ice cream, pizza, pasta and potato chips, can be “cooked” out of paper. Through actions like cutting, tearing, rolling, folding and crumpling paper balls.etc, we would like to facilitate children to make their imagination into reality!
