We used about 10 sheets.Ģ – We’re going to cut the strips for both pom poms at the same time so fold the tissue paper pile in half lengthways. Simply make a pile of all the colours you want to use in your pom poms. I bet you won’t be able to resist a little song and dance with them too! I know I couldn’t!ġ – It doesn’t really matter what size tissue paper sheets you have but I wouldn’t go any smaller than A4 (12″ x 8″). You’ll be able to make these colourful cheerleader pom poms in just a few minutes and they’ll provide lots of physical play opportunities for your kids. It really is only limited by the size of your tissue paper sheets. You can make pom poms in any size or colours you like.

Pom poms are such a fantastic resource for inspiring creativity and self expression and developing gross motor skills too.

You’ll adore how super quick and easy these pom poms are to make and the kids will have a blast shaking them, running with them, spinning with them and dancing with them! We’ve made them for kids to play with as cheerleader pom poms but they’d be super fun as colourful pom pom decorations too! These paper pom poms are super pretty and colourful and you’ll love how easy they are to make! Today I’m going to show you how to make pom poms.
