We made our own confetti by hole punching scraps of paper. The more confetti you have the better, so be prepared to do lots of hole punching!

The 3-hole punch is easy to use and does most of the work for you, but a hand-held single hole punch is great for working those hand and finger muscles! Try a combination of both to make lots of confetti.

Instructions for confetti fireworks

Apply glue to resemble a fireworks pattern

1. Spread glue in lines on the construction paper to resemble fireworks.

You can draw lines for younger kids to follow, but there doesn't have to be a set pattern for the resulting picture of fireworks. Kids can be creative with where the lines are made.
