A project I would like to share was done for our dear grannies for Mother's day. Two variants were done. The first variant I did together with my daughter. The second variant is a printable version (I did patterns in a photo editor and printed them out).
Materials are really simple:
The main one is a box of tea bags.
Some paper, color markers/pens/pencils, an adhesive (double-sided tape is comfortable to work with), scissors.
And of course a good mood because this gift is gonna be given to someone you love!
Here is my video tutorial with both variants:
Take A4 Paper, Cut It Into Rectangles, Fold Them in Half and Cut Off Edges to Make a Tea Bag Shape.

My rectangles (tea tags to be) are 3,5 cm x 9 cm.
Let Your Kid Decorate the Tea Tags.

Take a Ready Tea Bag, Remove the Tag and Adhere Your Tag With Double-sided Tape or a Glue Stick.

Take Thick Paper A3, Fix the Box With a Masking Tape, Trace the Outline and Cut It Out.

Instead of A3 paper, one or two sheets of A4 thick paper/ card stock may be used depending on the size of your box. How to make a box out of A4 paper is shown in the second part of the video.
Repeat All Folds and Cuts Using a Ruler and Scissors and Fold Up a Box.
