Paper-Roll American Flag Craft

 Here's an awesomely easy and patriotic way to craft your very own star-spangled banner with your kids! A perfect American flag craft for 4th of July, Flag Day, or just teaching your kids about the USA! It looks really cool and is actually really easy too!

Supplies:

• Cardstock
• Red, white, & blue construction paper
• Scissors
• Glue
• Pipe-cleaner (chenille stick)

Here's what you do:

• First, draw the square and stripes on a piece of cardstock, like this (sorry it's kinda hard to see....):

• Next, cut out strips from the red, white & blue construction paper. Mine are about 3/4"-1" wide. Make them as wide as you would like. :)
• Roll the paper strips around a pipe-cleaner so they curl. To save time, we did like 10 at a time. (If you do a lot like this, you may need to roll each of them a little after you take them all apart--so they're smaller curls)

• Once you have all your paper-rolls ready, put glue on the flag, one section at a time and place the rolls on the glue.

 Happy 4th of July!!
