Sparkle Windsock Kids Craft Activity

This windsock craft is a fun activity. The kids could run around with it outside or you could hang it up and watch it fly. The windsock could also help keep the birds out of your fruit trees or strawberries. Just hang it up in your fruit trees or berry patch.

Things Needed For Windsock Kids Craft

Small Embroidery Hoop
Double Sided Carpet Tape
Shiny Streamers (I'm not sure the name, I'll find out for sure and post it)


Directions For Windsock Kids Craft

-Cut tape into small strips. Line the outside and inside of embroidery hoop with the tape.

-Take your streamers and srap them around the hoop.

- If you wrap the tip of a streamer around the hoop it will make the windsock long.

- If you wrap the middle of the streamer around the hoop it will make the windsock shorter, but it will be more full.

- You may also get a piece of wire and attach it to either side of the hoop to make a handle to hold and let the kids run with it, or use it to hand up and watch the streamers fly and sparkle in the sunshine.
