Rainy Day Cloud Craft: A how-to tutorial

Here's one for the children on a rainy day.
Make your own Rainy Day Cloud art. 
Draw a cloud on a piece of white cardboard. 
Cut the shape out. 
(A good practice piece for children with all the bumps and lumps)

Invite them to colour the cloud, any so way they wish.

Punch some holes in the cloud.  Raindrop holes at the bottom and two at the top to thread a piece of wool to hang it up. 

Cut some lengths of wool in whatever colour you choose. (Mine were about 12cm long)
Turn over your cloud, thread the wool into the raindrop holes and tie off with a double knot. 

Add your hanging thread.
A simple expression of a rainy day.
