Wind Socks

Today’s craft was wind socks. I bought sheets of that foam paper and showed them a few pictures and then let their creative juices flow. They cut out different shapes and created a scene on the main body, which was a very large foam sheet. After they were finished we glued all the pieces in place and let that get completely dry. We formed the tubes, punched holes down the sides and then laced them together with plastic thread. Then we punched holes along the bottom and ties long strips of ribbon in the holes, so that they would flap in the wind. These were a big hit, even Kelsey wanted to make one when she got home from school.

BTW, Ellie made one too, but she wouldn’t let me take a picture of her!
