Need: Blue
Construction Paper, Flat Sponges (the kind after you put them in water
raise up to a regular sponge), Paint, Cookie Cutter in the shape of a
star, Red Crepe Streamers, White Crepe Streamers, Clear Contact Paper,
String or Yarn
Directions: Cut
out star shapes on the sponges. Then put them in water to make them
regular size. Glue a 35 mm canister to one end of the sponge. This will
keep the paint off the children's hands. Dip the star shaped sponge in
white paint and then onto the construction paper. If you do not want to
use the sponges you could use the star shaped cookie cutters instead. When
dry you can add contact paper so that you can put it outside but I found
the crepe paper runs in the rain and doesn't look good. (You can try it)
Fold the blue construction paper into a cylinder and staple together Then
add the red and white streamers. A very patriotic symbol for Memorial Day.
