When it comes to celebrating spring, our kids get excited every single year and immediately want to run outside and play in the sun. Unfortunately, however, spring is actually a very wet time of year and the rain keeps them inside more often than they’d like. On those days, we like to use crafts to help them celebrate the excitement of a season change instead! That’s why we’ve had our eyes peeled for awesome floral themed spring crafts for them to try out over the next few weeks.
Just in case you love the idea of collecting spring kids’ craft ideas for your little ones just as much as we do, if not more, here are 15 of the very best floral tutorials that we’ve come across so far in this year’s search!
1. Sparkly cupcake liner and glitter flowers
In our house, the kids adore turning regular kitchen supplies into all kinds of new things, making pretty simple for us to keep them amused because we often already have whatever they need lying around. This cupcake liner flower project is the perfect example of what we mean!
2. Stripped paper flower bouquet
Have you actually been hoping to find a few ways that will help you keep your kids busy with only really simple craft supplies, like construction paper, because you’ve been too busy to restock some of the fancier things lately and you know they’re likely to want to craft at any moment? Then we think you’ll appreciate the way
3. Folded circle paper flowers

Are your kids actually a little bit older and therefore able to practice a little more patience in their crafting? In that case, we think you might get along a little better with something like these layered tissue paper flowers featured step by step on
6. Rainbow paper Dahlia wall flowers
Are you really loving both the idea of making layered flowers and the idea of making them out of colourful construction paper but you can’t help feeling like your kids would feel more amused if what they got to make was nice and big, rather than being as small as some of the ideas you’ve seen so far? In that case, we’d definitely suggest taking a look at how
7. Finger print flowers with a moving butterfly
In our house, the positively most popular crafts are those that can be played with in some way when they’re done and those that involve some element of mess. Luckily for all of us, this super fun and super easy paper plate project from
8. Felt, button, and straw flowers

12. Pressed flower and leaves craft
If you’re going to get into the world of floral springtime crafts with your kids, would you much rather craft with actual flowers wherever possible?
