What you'll need:
- Clear plastic plate or clear lids from large coffee can
- Colored tissue paper
- Crêpe paper streamers
- Stars, sequins, glitter
- Starch
- Paintbrush
- Hole punch
- Ribbon
How to make it:
- Invite your kids to brush liquid starch on a clear plastic plate (clear lids from large coffee cans work well, too).
- Provide them with a variety of colorful tissue paper, pieces of crêpe paper streamers, stars, sequins, and glitter. (The starch soaks through the thin pieces and adheres these to the plate.)
- Brush on a second coat to keep things in place.
- Let dry thoroughly, punch a hole at the top and hang in a sunny place with a ribbon loop.
