Happy Independence Day

Happy

Independence

Day!!

I hope you have a safe and fun day celebrating the 4th of July!

Here is a collection of pictures of some of the fun and yummy patriotic things we have done over the years. Perhaps you are looking for something quick to do with your children today. 

Patriotic Muffin Tins:

(Out of all of them, I think my Stars and Stripes tin is my favorite.)

Yummy Desserts:

Simple Craft ideas:

Red, white and blue collage I just found some star outlines online and printed them out in various sizes on red, white and blue paper, along with some fireworks.  The girls glued them to black paper.

The children made these paper towel roll fireworks at Story Hour last weekend. The librarian wasn't sure where she found the idea. But it again is simple to put together.

Activities: 

Montessori fine motor activity 

Patriotic Pasta Sparkler Activity

And here is a link to my Patriotic Pinterest Board for many, many ideas.
