table with crafting materials

You will need:

  • Pompom
  • Yarn in assorted colours
  • Lolly sticks
  • Scissors
  • Twine
  • Glue gun

To make:

Step 1: With the help of a grown up use the glue gun to stick your lolly sticks into a triangle shape.

Step 2: Choose the colour wool that you’d like on your rainbow and cut 16 lengths around 40cm long.

Step 3: With each length of wool, fold in half, hold the loop under the triangle and thread the long ends of the wool through the loop and pull tight over the lolly stick. Repeat with all your wool in the colour pattern that you’d like.
