About this item

Kindergarten-Grade 5–Aesthetically pleasing with their bright colorful pages, clear concise instructions on the left side and photographs of various stages of the final product on the right, these books include 10 crafts each. Introductory pages offer brief information about the holiday. New Year includes directions for making a dragon-streamer puppet, a ribbon lantern, Chinese zodiac pictures, and more. In Cinco de Mayo, children learn how to make a peace votive, sombrero, and paper poncho, among other things. Use of everyday items such as paper cups, cupcake liners, and construction paper makes these activities practical for both students and teachers.– Tanaz Sutaria, John Gomes Elementary, Fremont, CA Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
