Easy Kids Crafts
Fun and easy kids crafts for fourth of July include a patriotic pinwheel which can be hand decorated with paint and a sponge stamp. You can print out a simple pinwheel template which can be used as a guide for cutting the paper, which you can decorate by with a star-shaped sponge dipped in red, white and blue paint.
You use the sponge as a stamp , and a gold pain pen can be used to draw in dots and curly lines for further decoration. Kids can decorate both sides of the paper, then trace the template design on the paper once it's dry, and follow some simple assembly instructions to make the pinwheel. Sparklers are another simple craft for kids to make with gold foil garlands and a wooden dowel.
