Fun Crafts for the Fourth

Happy Fourth of July. I hope you are enjoying this day with barbecue, potato salad, and fresh corn on the cob. If you would like some fun crafts to do with your kids check out the June/July 2010 issue of Working Mothers magazine. Below are some great suggestions.

Cool Container

As the weather gets warmer, kids will need to stay hydrated. So help your children personalize their own foam can hugs. Thy can decorate them with self-adhesive foam alphabet and star stickers in the colors they select. Add touches of glitter for festive sparkle. Then pop in a cool drink and enjoy! These form can hug will keep their drinks cool and have a personal touch all at the same time.

Holiday Hanger

Greet your guests with a flag-inspired welcome on your door. Have your kids cut out strips of blue and red paper and glue them onto a sheet of white card stock (make sure to measure strips to fit.) Glue on red, white, and blue foam stars and write "Happy 4Th of July" with paint pens. Hang by attaching ribbon.

Be sure to do something special with your family and have a fun filled 4Th!!!!
