Rainbow Pipe Cleaner Hair Threading

Top Tip

Try bending the hair into waves like my example to make it a little more challenging to thread the beads, or leave it straight for an easier activity.

  1. Take 2 small paper plates and stick them together with the coloured side touching using PVA glue.
  2. One this is dry, paint one side and set aside to dry.
  3. Take a hole punch and punch out 14 holes for the hair. Evenly space these along the top edge of the plate.
  4. Stick on your wiggle eyes and draw a nose and mouth.
  5. Choose 14 pipe cleaners. We have chosen the 7 colours of the rainbow and used 2 of each colour, but you can choose any colour combination that you like.
  6. Fold each pipe cleaner in half and thread the pointy end into the hole and fold it over so that it won’t fall out.
  7. Take your pony beads and thread them onto the pipe cleaners.
