Ring Around the Picnic
Jazz up your summer picnic table! Create these quick and easy napkin rings with cardboard rolls and Crayola® Washable Markers.
1. Any picnic is a special event when you make your own decorations! Here's an easy way to make napkin rings for a summer picnic.
2. Choose any design you like. Draw your designs on recycled cardboard rolls with Crayola Washable Markers. Use lots of pretty colors!
3. If you know how to draw a square, you can make a checkerboard pattern. Here's how. Draw lines from the roll's top to its bottom.
4. Then draw lines crossing those lines going around the roll. That makes squares.
5. Color in every other square in one row. On the next row, color in the square above the blank one. Continue following this pattern. This will fill in your checkerboard.
6. Insert a Hallmark® napkin into one end. What a festive picnic!
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
Recycled Cardboard Tubes—Use paper towel tubes, gift-wrap tubes, or long cardboard tubes that can be cut to any length. Health professionals caution against using recycled toilet paper tubes for arts & crafts projects because of the potential fecal contamination.
