Have you said "You're a great helper!" to a child today?
Construction Paper Flags
9X12 inch manila paper
red-white-blue tissue paper
paste or glue
Very simply sketch the outlines of the American Flag on the manila paper with pencil. Be sure that the field of stars is in the left hand corner. Next tear the pieces of tissue paper and glue them in the according stripes of color on the flag. Fit the pieces tightly together so none of the background paper will show. Use white tissue for the stars, blue for the field, and red and white for the stripes. Continue to tear and paste until the entire flag has been filled with color. You can leave it this way, or you can mount them to a black or yellow background.
