Name Cloud
Make a name cloud at home or school!
Gather your materials: paper, a marker, scissors, pipe cleaners, and glue.
Write your name on the piece of paper that will be your cloud. Then draw a cloud shape around your name and cut it out (or get a grownup to cut it out for you).
Grab your next sheet of paper and draw raindrops – one for every letter of your name! Write your name using one raindrop for each letter. Cut out the raindrops (or get help).
Grab your pipe cleaners. (You can also use yarn, string, or ribbon if you want.) Cut into several different lengths.
Glue the raindrops onto the bottoms of the pipe cleaners. Then lay them out and glue the tops of the pipe cleaners to theback of the cloud. Make sure you can fit all your letters without covering any up!
Last, grab your background sheet of paper. Centre the name cloud and glue them together. Nice job!
