Handmade Rakhi Steps for kids
Step 1:
Take a piece of craft foam of medium thickness – cut it in the shape of a square.
This is for the inner/second layer of the rakhi, so the size of the piece has to be according to that.
Step 2:
Draw a circle on the foam piece.
Step 3:
Cut out along the circle outline drawn. I have used a scissor that cuts in a wavy pattern for a ‘cooler’ effect.
Here is the piece after it has been cut out.
Step 4:
Repeat the above steps to make a bigger piece for the bottom layer of the rakhi.
Step 6:
Now open up the fold. Insert a satin ribbon in one slit…
…and bring it to the top through the other slit.
Note: Seal the ends of the satin ribbon by exposing the ends to an open flame and then give the ribbon to your kids.

Fold this piece that we cut out in step 4 in half and make two cuts spaced out from each other. The depth of each cut can be about 0.5 cm.
Can you see the cuts? I guess not…they are at the points where the arrows indicate.
