This colourful "fasching jelly" is a colorful craft action made of sustainable materials. Uses wool remnants and an empty cardboard roll. Colorful painted this jellyfish looks even more colorful. Children who already master the handling of the scissors can diligently cut threads. For this also a ruler can be helpful for measuring the length. However, the lengths can also vary here.
A strip of double-sided adhesive tape is attached to the inside of the cardboard roll. On this the children can glue the wool threads. Length and distance of the threads play no role for the result.
At the end an adult threads a thread with a needle through the top of the cardboard roll and knots it. The jellyfish can be hung on it. In the air the wool threads move and a nice decoration is ready.
Look at the instructions and try it out yourself. Have fun!

Relief in everyday life, targeted promotion of individual children, independent learning and - without any pre-knowledge already usable by the youngest!
Prepare all craft materials, a craft pad on the table and put on a paint coat.
First you need a cardboard roll and scissors.
Take off the cardboard roll and cut off a piece about 3 cm wide.
(An adult should do that.)
You can cut off as many cardboard rings as you like.
Put some paint in an empty yoghurt cup. With a thick brush you can now paint the cardboard roll from the outside.
Tip: Uses only one color for each ring. When using several colors, they mix and sometimes brown tones are created. Individual colors used are much more powerful and colorful!
When all the rings are painted, let them dry well.
Cuts off a strip of double-sided adhesive tape with scissors. The length corresponds to the circumference of the cardboard roll.
The adhesive tape is glued on the inside of the cardboard roll. For this, the adhesive tape is placed as a ring so that the adhesive side is outside.
Then you put the tape in the cardboard roll and press it on.
Now pull off the foil of the tape.
Now the inside of the roll sticks. On it you stick now woolen threads. For this place the ring briefly to the side.
You now need thick colorful wool and a children's scissors.
Let the children cut the wool threads themselves.
Tip: Some children want to take "dimension" themselves and measure the thread lengths, for this you can use a short ruler. Also a pen is suitable to measure the length.
If you have cut enough of different coloured wool threads, you can start with the glue.
Get the prepared cardboard roll with the adhesive tape. Then you stick the wool threads with the beginning of the thread on the adhesive tape in the cardboard ring. Hardly glued threads can be placed outwards and are not in the way.
At the end you thread a thread onto a thick pointed needle. (An adult must take over this process - danger of injury!) Stitch the needle through the top edge in the cardboard roll and on the opposite side again from the inside to the outside. Pull the thread through and knot the ends together. The resulting loop serves to hang the carnival jelly.
So you can glue further colorful cardboard rings with wool.
Another carnival jellyfish is ready.
A few carnival jellyfish already look very nice as decoration in the carnival period.
Hangs the carnival jellyfish, for example, on a branch. Uses it like snakes to hang up.
Have fun trying out and decorating!
