Using Red, White, Yellow and Blue paints you can have children do rows of colors to represent the stars and stripes. Your message can be "Thanks for the helping hand" An awesome way to celebrate the lives of veterans! This project is for any age preschool thru school age. Making a flag for Memorial Day and or July 4th. Take a white piece of construction paper. Have the kids glue on the paper and either you cut out red strips of paper for the stripes on the flag or if they are older child have them cut the strips out. Then have them add a blue square and add star stickers to the square. Tada a flag to celebrate with. Make red and blue Jell-O with cool whip with the children. They love to stir and mix things this allows them to be active in there snack time. 5-29-01 American Flag Veggie Plate Ok.......this is soooooo cool!!! I did this for Memorial Day. Here is what you will need: 1 cookie sheet Have the children help you wash the cherry tomatoes, cauliflower stalks, and blueberries. Put the blueberries in the shallow container. Place it on the cookie sheet in the upper left hand corner. Cut the poster board so it goes from the edge of the shallow container to the edge of the cookie sheet. You will also need several pieces of poster board that goes spans the entire length of the cookie sheet. Place one of the pieces of poster board about two inches down from the top of the cookie sheet and have the children fill the space with tomatoes. Take another piece of poster board and place it two inches down and fill the space with cauliflower. Keep alternating tomatoes and cauliflower until you get to the end of the cookie sheet. Viola!!!!!!! Now, you have a yummy American flag!
You can also cut star fruit and place them on top of the blueberries for added
fun.
ideaWe home school and for Memorial Day we have put up a flag to remember all the soldiers who have served our country. Also, I like the idea of remembering people or events that have been special. The kids draw a picture of someone or something they would like to remember.
5-28-00For a great memorial day event, and to help even young children understand memories and memorial day we have a memories parade. At home the parents work with their child to make a memories sign. Some of them get very creative they have pictures of special friends, vacations, animals. Some of them do a special relative or somebody who has passed away. We have a parade around the school then we display our memories down a long hall for everyone to see. It is a beautiful sight. The memories sign afterward becomes a treasured keepsake to most of our families
