Make Great Flags
Every country has a day to honor its heritage. Create a big party banner with your country's flag. Celebrate independence!
1. What does your country's flag look like? What other symbols stand for your country? Find pictures, flags, or posters to see them.
2. Use rolled paper to make a flag table runner. Or make a flag banner. A paper tablecloth would work, too.
3. With Crayola® Erasable Colored Pencils, draw a big picture of your country's flag. Color it with Crayola Markers.
4. Fill the paper with more symbols of your country. Use your imagination! Try different techniques with your markers. You could sponge on designs. Or make stamps by cutting pieces of foam produce trays with Crayola Scissors. Color the sponges or stamps with markers. While they are still wet, print on the paper.
5. Add Crayola Glitter Glue for sparkles. Dry. Happy independence day!
