3 Types of Clouds Craft

January 28, 2016 By Rachel

Clouds are such a fun science topic to teach!
Especially when you can turn it into a craft!

Fun and easy art project using DIY puffy paint to make the 3 types of clouds
A fun way to do this is to paint types of clouds with DIY puffy paint!

For this cloud craft you’ll need:
Shaving cream
Liquid glue
Construction Paper
Cups or Bowls
Craft Sticks or Spoons

Before passing out the crafting supplies, we watched the video about the 3 types of clouds.

Then we divided our construction paper into 3 parts and labeled.
Next, we mixed the shaving cream and liquid glue.
I did not use any exact measurements…I can’t even say I used equal parts.
I just squirt some shaving cream and glue in a cup and had the students stir.
You can do this in advance, but I felt my kiddos could handle this part.
Finally, the cloud creations!

They really enjoyed making the cumulus clouds!

Once they dry, you will have puffy clouds!
**Disclaimer: The puffiness only last about 2 days, and then it deflated, but it was still lots of fun!
Do you do any fun crafts when teaching science?
