You can find full details on how to make them throughout the web or use your own creativity.
The Pinwheel. Nothing shouts Happy 4th like the pinwheel. TO make them, simple fold a piece of paper into a star shape. You will want to create a center section that will allow you to place a push pin through it. Have the kids color the paper red, white and blue before they begin folding. You?ll need to squares to work with. Place the two sheets together. Then, cut the first sheet from the corners towards the middle about half way. Fold the corners to the middle, secure with push pin around a pencil at the back.
Flags. Flags are the most traditional of ways to celebrate the 4th. For a simple design, have your child color a picture of the flag on a piece of paper. Then, attach one side of the flag to popsicle sticks for a pole and they have a great looking flag to wave!
Stars. Another great way to show your pride is with stars. Here have each child decorate paper stars on the front and the back in a wide range of designs. Anything goes! Red, white and blue work best. Then, place a small hole through the top of each and string them together. You can hang at your 4th of July celebration for a great way to celebrate. It makes a great decoration for around the table too.
You can find lots of fun craft projects for the 4th of July. In fact, you can make it a history lesson with a few great fact sheets, coloring sheets about the Founding Fathers and a wide range of other things. One thing is for sure. You will want the kids to enjoy themselves. Just getting out the red, white and blue finger paint and letting them go at it is enough to make this a very special celebration of the 4th of July!
