DIY paper rose heart: Beautiful gift for March 8th or gift for Mother's Day
Are you looking for a special gift for March 8 for your mom? Or do you need a creative idea for a Mother's Day gift? Then you are exactly right here! We have a beautiful craft idea for you: a heart made of self-rolled paper roses that you can create together with your child.
The development of fine motor skills in children is extremely important for their overall development. When children craft and are creative, they not only train their dexterity but also their concentration and patience. A homemade rose heart is also a wonderful gift for March 8 or a gift for Mother's Day - it is personal, looks impressive, and shows that you took the time.
Our tutorials on TutKit.com always consist of videos, photos, and detailed text descriptions with tips for each step. We do everything ourselves - we craft, film, and photograph each project before sharing it with you.
Rose Heart: Video
Before you start crafting, please watch the video. We strive to show every step in as much detail as possible in our videos. Videos are often much more informative than photos and help you understand the technique better.
Rose Heart: Step-by-Step Guide with Photos and Description
Before you start, you should prepare all materials. Do you have everything ready?
Required Materials:
- Sturdy cardboard (for the heart shape)
- Red cardboard (not too thick, for the roses)
- Scissors
- String or thin cord (for hanging)
- Hot glue gun with glue sticks
- Pencil
Preparation of Materials: You need enough red cardboard for the roses - depending on the size of your heart, you will need more or less material. The cardboard for the roses should be thin enough so that you can roll it easily, but firm enough so that the roses hold their shape.
The Importance of Fine Motor Skill Development in Children
The development of fine motor skills plays a crucial role in early childhood development. Scientific studies show that children who regularly train their fine motor skills develop better writing abilities later and often perform better in other areas such as mathematics.
Research shows that the neural connections responsible for fine motor skills develop particularly intensively between the ages of three and eight. This time is therefore especially important to promote such skills. Crafting with paper is ideal for this, as it requires precise finger movements and simultaneously promotes concentration.
Craft activities like rolling the small paper roses combine playful learning with creative design - a perfect combination for children's learning. Additionally, crafting together with parents strengthens the socio-emotional bonds, which is also of great importance for the healthy development of a child.
