Craft Ideas For Kids - Tribal Stick Crown

Summer Craft Projects for Kids 4 - Tribal Stick Crown

We were inspired by our flower crown afternoon and decided to experiment with the same process using coloured gathered sticks. My son loves playing warriors and had this idea for a fierce tribal crown he could wear on his adventures.

You will need: sticks, coloured chalk, raffia and scissors.

1 - Gather lots of thin sticks & colour by dipping coloured chalk in a little water. Our rainbow chalk comes in amazing vivid colours.

Fun and messy.

2 - Make your raffia crown by plaiting some raffia and tying the two ends together to make a circle.

3 - Stick your coloured twigs into the crown starting at the middle and working your way around; stop around 10cm before your knot.

4 - Gather your sticks together, creating a mini tipi-like shape and tie using a small piece of raffia.

5 - Stick a feather at the centre of your crown.

6 - Finished simple tribal crown.
