Shooting Star Wand Craft
Today, we're going to continue on with
our space theme with a fun little craft that will enable your child
to make their own shooting star! This was such a fun craft/child
made toy that I am so excited to share with you. It is not only
pretty and fun to make, but it is also fun to play with afterwards!
(I absolutely love crafts that enable kids to create their own play
things such as the butterfly dress up wings that I posted about last
spring).
If you haven't read it already, be sure
to check out the Star Splatter Painting project that I wrote about
yesterday. It was so much fun!
Here's What You Will Need to Make the
Wands with Your Preschooler:
- construction paper (we used yellow)
- pencil
- crayons
- scissors
- glue
- ribbon
- Popsicle sticks
To begin, your going to need to draw or
trace two stars (per wand) onto a sheet of construction paper. I
just traced a plastic glow in the dark star that I had lying around
the house. If you want to draw yours, I would recommend drawing it
onto a separate sheet of paper and then tracing it onto the
construction paper (so that all of your stars are the same).
Give the paper to your child, along
with some crayons or other material to decorate the stars. When they
are finished, have them cut out the stars (or cut the stars out
yourself depending on their ability with scissors).
Lay a star decorated side down onto the
work surface. Invite them to squeeze out some glue onto the star's
plain side and press in the craft stick and ribbon. Then have them
add some more glue and another star (this time decorated side facing
up) to finish. Set aside to dry somewhere safe.
Once dry, take them back out and invite
your child to play with them. We made two, so that we would be able
to play with them together.

Since Saturday I decided to take my training for the next few weeks into my own hands as the current training and nutrition style was a little too much. I have 15 weeks to go, so not feeling the need to be so drained so far out.
