    Chinese Dragon Sensory Puzzle

    Celebrate the Lunar New Year with a DIY Chinese dragon sensory puzzle.

    I always love introducing different cultures to my kids through simple plays. Niko loves dragons, dinosaurs (and the likes) and making this sensory puzzle was such a big hit.

    Let’s make a Chinese Dragon Sensory Puzzle:

    Materials needed:

    • Recycled cardboard (used boxes)
    • Acrylic paint
    • Black marker
    • Glue gun and stick
    • Scissors
    • Pencil and eraser

    For fillers:

    • Santan petals
    • Santan leaves
    • Yellow split peas

    Extras:

    • Containers
    • Spoons and scoops

    Instructions:

    • Sketch out a dragon on a piece of cardboard.
    • Paint according to the color of your preferred dragon. I used red, yellow, green, white and orange. (These are the common Chinese dragon colors)
    • Use the black marker to outline the dragon’s body and face.
    • Cut a few 1 inch strips of cardboard.
    • Apply hot glue on the outside part of the dragon as well as the inside. (This is when you want to divide the areas for different kinds of fillers)
    • Once the puzzle is done, cut out the extra cardboard on the sides.
    • Fill the containers with fillers and spoons and serve to play.

    There you go! Hope you guys will enjoy this activity as much as we did.
