Steps

Neon Modern Mobiles for Kids1. Pick out a piece of the neon sticker board as your “base.” You’re not going to use it as a sticker for this project.  Just keep it as is.  Add washi tape in any cool design you want and hole punch three holes.  Everything you need for decorating is right inside the kit.  It’s like a one stop shop of super cool materials.

3. Next, cut up a few pipe cleaners approximately in half.  It doesn’t have to be exact.  Demonstrate for your child how to curve the ends so they become a hook.  Younger kids might need a little help with this part. You might want to add a few beads to the middle of the pipe cleaner before you curve the ends.

Okay, now you’re ready to hook and latch.  Hook in a pipe cleaner to your “base” and then latch a shape on to the bottom hook.  It may take a little practice but soon your child will start to get it.  You can squeeze the hook a little to make it extra secure but you don’t really need to.

6. Hole punch the top two sides of your “base” and tie a little rainbow string (also in the kit.) Add beads before tying the second side if you want.  Hang in your favorite spot.

Neon Modern Mobiles for Kids*Secret Tip for Kids* If you want, do step 6 first and hang.  Then use the hook and latch method while the mobile is hanging.  Some kids might find this a little easier to manage.  Gravity will be on your side : )
