For one of our large group activities we made some 3-D hearts. Although I did not call them 3-D hearts - I called them "pop out hearts". First I modeleld for them how to make them, then we worked on it together. It was kind of a challenging process at the begining, but after making one or two they all becamse experts and made several.
You take a strip of paper - fold it in half, then start at one side and start rolling it until you get to the fold, then you roll the other side until you get to the fold. Then you roll them out a little and you have a heart. Then you can glue them onto a paper. To keep it a heart shape you should glue them on their side. That was a hard concept for the kdis to grasp - so most got glued on their bottom, which distorted the heart shape - but the kids didn't seem to notice or mind. They all thought that they were beautiful hearts... and they were.
oh, first we wrote the word "heart" on our papers.
