St. Patrick's Day is around the corner and although we are not Irish my kids
seem to get a kick out of hunting for leprechauns. Try making rainbow
friendship bracelets.

A fun paper lantern craft for kids to decorate your home for Chinese New
Year. Make many lanterns of different colors for decorations and hang them
around your home.
What you'll need:
Construction paper, Scissors, Tape, Stapler, Ruler, Pencil, Glue, Glitter, Sequins
How to make it:
Use your ruler to measure and cut one inch off the short end of your paper.
Set aside to use as the handle.
Fold your paper in half lengthwise.
Draw a line one inch from the end of the long edge of the paper opposite the
folded edge. This will be the line where you stop cutting.
Measure and mark lines one inch apart starting at the folded edge and moving
towards the "stop cutting" line. (see photo)
Cut on the marked lines up to the "stop cutting" line.
Unfold the paper.
Re-crease the paper in the opposite direction. This will hide any pencil
marks.
Match the long edges together on the lantern and use tape to hold it in
place.
Staple the handle to the top of the lantern. (see photo)
Make as many lanterns as you wish and display them around your home.
If you wish, add glue, glitter, sequins or other things to decorate your
lanterns.
