How to Make a Paper Rose & Other Rose Crafts for Kids

{Learn about products I love!}

I am busy working away putting together a bunch of Valentine themed activities for my kids. Some activities are Montessori so that is no big thing. On the other hand, I am venturing down that crafty road again, and, well, my brain hurts. I am not sure why I was never into crafts because I am certainly driven to them now. I have a few new Valentine themed crafts to share with you in the coming weeks. For now, check out the below round up to learn how to make a paper rose & loads of other Rose Crafts & Activities for Kids.

Felt Rose Activity

What a beautiful Felt Rose activity and tutorial offered from Love of Family and Home. I enjoy experimenting with different materials. In this case, we have felt versus paper, card stock, or tissue paper. The author adds tips that really pay off. I like the idea of using felt but I always have difficultly cutting felt. Any tips?
