This project is easy to do and fits well within various parenting styles focused on creativity and positive engagement. Here is the step-by-step guide to making an easy paper fan.

Gather Your Materials

You will need a sheet of paper-preferably A4 or square in shape, some markers or paints for decoration, glue or sticky tape, and optionally a small piece of wood for a more robust handle. By allowing the child to choose material and color used, their sense of choice is encouraged, which is part of positive parenting.

Decorate the Paper

This is now the most creative step! Using markers, paints, or crayons, decorate the paper on both sides. You could do patterns, shapes, or just a splash of color-whatever feels personal. As parenting tips go, allow children to design freely because that builds their self-confidence. It also brings in a constructive parenting style that upholds self-expression.

Fold the Paper Accordion Style

When the paper is dry, start folding it in an accordion fashion, with each fold about 1-2 cm wide. Remember to keep the size of the folds roughly the same so that the fan opens nicely. Moving on to this part of the exercise will help the child improve their fine motor skills, which entails a brilliant task-building concentration that is entirely in tune with the techniques of positive parenting.

 Secure the Base of the Fan

After folding, hold the paper tight at the base and glue or tape it in place. If you will be adding a handle, glue a wooden stick to the base of the fan for extra support. Glueing and securing are important tasks, as well as allowing your child to take responsibility for completing the task at such a great time in parenting.

Unfurl and Enjoy Your Fan

Spread the top of the fan gently, and you'll receive a ready-to-use working paper fan! At this stage of the process, children are thrilled that their effort develops into a usable object. Positive parenting at its best is applauding their success at this stage, no matter the fan's appearance, which teaches the children to be proud of their efforts.

To Sum Up

Crafting with children can be an enjoyable and rewarding experience, especially when it’s as simple as making a paper fan. This approach to parenting goes beyond fun, helping instil valuable life skills in a relaxed environment.
