Shiny Painted 3D Stars

"These shiny painted stars are fun to make for Memorial Day, Flag Day, and Fourth of July. You print out the free template, let the kids paint, and then cut out and fold to get a perfect patriotic look. Then you can string them up as bunting, hang them from a mobile, or just enjoy them as is."

Age GroupToddlers, Preschool & Kindergarten
NotesTime given is hands-on time. If you want to do multiple colors on one star then you'll also need to allow for drying time between colors, unless you don't mind the colors mixing.
