What you'll need:

How to make it:

1. Thumb through old magazines and find pages that have red, white and blue on them. Pull these pages out.
2. Cut red, white and blue squares from the magazines and set into piles according to their color.
3. Place white construction paper on the work surface and fold evenly into three sections. Fold gently to create two creases to use as a guideline for your flag’s sections.
4. Use glue stick to attach magazine squares to the construction paper, blue on the left, white in the middle and red on the right.
5. Write child’s name on the back.
   

Tips:

• Save old magazines for projects such as these. If you have too many, remember to recycle them, not throw them away.
• If you don’t have magazines, you can use construction or tissue paper for this project as well.
• A glue stick works best for this project, though you can use white or school glue, just spread it on to the paper with a paintbrush or sponge applicator.
