Paper Heart Chain

How we did it:
Materials List
- tissue paper
- scissors
- tape
-
Start by gathering up the supplies. We used a few shades of red tissue paper for our chains. The bigger the tissue paper, the better.
-
Then my five-year-old created the fan fold (back and forth). We folded several sheets together at once to make it a fast and easy project.
-
Then we folded the folded paper in half, and then cut a half-heart shape. Don't cut all the way through to the edges.
-
Then we unfolded the tissue paper and we had some lovely little connected hearts.
-
To make the chains longer, we taped a few together.
-
The kids were both thrilled to have a heart chain. They taped a few up over the windows and they liked how the light would shine through the tissue paper.
