This Canada Day printable wand craft is so easy and fun for kids to make! There are 5 mix and match designs to choose from and kids can use colored pencils, markers, or even crayons to color in their designs. Put on a bell or 2 and you can also use these as noisemakers! 

This paper craft is perfect for kids to make during Canada Day family get-togethers and barbeques and getting ready to watch firework celebrations. We also enjoyed making this 3D paper fireworks craft that is super easy for kids to make and also comes with a printable.

Canada day printables and supplies needed for wand craft

Supplies

  • Maple leaf printables
  • White cardstock   
  • Paper straws in red and white
  • Markers, colored pencils or crayons
  • Glue stick
  • Metallic pipe cleaners   
  • Scissors
  • Bells in silver or gold

Instructions to make your Canada Day wands

1. First, print and cut out your maple leaf designs. We printed ours on white cardstock, which makes them a bit more sturdy than just regular white printer paper. 

Coloring a Canada Day printable

There are 3 pages with 2 maple leaves on each page. Two of the maple leaves are blank for kids to draw in their own designs. 

2. Have kids color in the designs. You can use markers, pencil crayons, or even crayons. We stuck to red and also used some metallic gold and silver sharpies. But you could add in more colors if you like for extra colorful wands!

Glueing Canada Day project together

Kids can use the blank maple leaf templates to draw and color what they do with their families to celebrate Canada Day. You can even turn these into wishing wands and have kids write down their summer wishes or goals. 

3. After kids have finished coloring in their maple leaves, it’s time to glue everything together. Using a glue stick, glue the back of one maple leaf, place a straw in the center and another maple leaf on top. Make sure everything is lined up and press firmly. 

Try gluing the top of the straw as well to make the wands stick together really well. 

Adding pipe cleaners and bells to Canada Day craft.

4.  Thread a bell (or 2) onto a metallic pipe cleaner and twist around the top of the straw. We used red, silver and gold pipe cleaners but you can use whatever colors you like. Bend the pipe cleaner back and forth. The twisted pipe cleaners remind me of fireworks!

If you want more of a firework feel to the pipe cleaners, you could add in more pipe cleaners and more colors. You can also add in more bells to make them louder when shaking if you are also using these as noisemakers.
