with Gerry D. Clown Hi, Friends! School's almost over, and my friends and I are getting ready to have some adventures this summer at the local park, library, pool and, of course, the circus! One of the first holidays after school gets out is Flag Day on June 14. For this special day, I want to make a bunch of patriotic flag windsocks for my house and for my two next door neighbors. Our porches will look extra happy and star-spangled! 'zm t ■ — Make a patriotic flag windsock! What you need: • Red <& white crepe paper, about 1-inch wide • 18 oz. blue plastic cups • Silver star stickers • Scissors • String • Tape Wtatyoudo: • Have a grown up clown poke a small hole in the bottom of a cup. • Cut a piece of string about two feet long and run both ends of the string through the hole, going from the outside towards the inside of the cup. • Place your hand inside the cup and pull the string ends almost all the way through. Tie the two ends together to make a big knot. • Grab the string sticking out of the bottom of the cup and pull the string out of the cup. The knot you tied should keep the string from coming all the way through, creating a loop with which you can hang the cup. • Place star stickers all over the outside of the cup. • Cut the crepe paper into pieces, about 3 feet long each. Tape one end of each piece inside the cup, alternating red and white pieces. • Hang your cup and enjoy Flag Day! 20 0 June 2016 ° William Penn Life All illustrations © Can Stock Photo Inc./Clairev • Photo courtesy of www.daniellesplace.com
