This rainbow cloud craft will add a wonderful splash of colour to the home or classroom and kids will love how easy it is to make it 3D!
They’ll also enjoy interacting with the craft because the smiling cloud sits on a simple paper spring. You can push it down and it pops back up and wobbles around. It’s so adorably cute!

How To Make a 3D Rainbow Cloud Craft
1 – Choose your template and print, trace or colour in as required.
2 – Cut out the rainbow cloud template pieces.
3 – On the back of each rainbow colour strip, put a dot of glue at the ends and in the middle. (I’ve marked the positions with an X in the photo above.)
4 – Start with your middle colour. Glue one end of it onto the middle of the dotted line cloud (backing sheet). Glue the other end at the bottom of the backing sheet to make an arch.
5 – Push down the middle of the rainbow colour to make two smaller arches.
6 – Repeat these steps with all of the rainbow colours. Work from the middle to the outside.
7 – Concertina fold the paper spring along the dotted lines.
8 – Glue one end of the spring to the back of the cut out cloud.
9 – Glue the other end of the paper spring onto the middle of the dotted line cloud on your backing sheet.
Now your colourful rainbow clouds are ready to go on display. I’m sure they’ll bring happiness and sunshine into everyone’s day!
