Find a place to decorate, and put it up!! You could add red white and blue ribbon on the bottom of the flag if you would like to.
It’s Summer time! Yeah!! Now if only the warm weather would arrive! In hopes of warmer weather, we made a paper plate fan craft. It’s simple and fun.

- Cover half of Dowel/Tongue depressor with pipe cleaners by wrapping it tightly around it
