Paper Bag Art,Intel Musuem event for kids,Cosmetics deal,

My daughter has a week of teacher appreciation. Each day is a different theme and gift. Wednesday is Fruit day, so all the kids will bring fruits for the teachers to enjoy. Keeping that in mind, I thought of decorating a brown paper bag to carry an apple .

What you need

A Brown Paper Bag
Leaves, Flowers
Ribbon or a twine

Scissors

Glue Stick

Lets get started:

Glue the leaves or flowers all over the bag on both sides. It is very easy for the kids to do and most of all not messy.

There are two ways to tie the bag . You can make holes in the top of the bag with scissors or a punch . Then insert the twine/ribbon through the holes and tie it . Or you could cover only half the bag with leaves and then tie the bag in the middle. I put a card with the poem from yesterdays post and an apple in the bag for each teacher.

Like my daughter says ," All Done!!!"
