Decorate the can however you would like. For this can there is a different color (blue) scrapbook paper that has the torn look around the edges. This paper was taped around the middle of the can and a piece of ribbon was glued over the top of that.<br />The words on the ribbon were made with glue and glitter. Spell the letters with your glue, and shake the glitter on top of the glue.<br />The same technique was used for a piece of paper on the lid of the can.<br /></span><p><span style="font-family:arial;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361772257187335938" border="0" alt="Paint can kids craft activity" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_vMlguoPz7AY8C1BPlM1C_xz0QwcJw8eK_RKTxvZGTfvur6Rbpr6KhjfZjQcpJaDGtLxKFE_5LxusCdIdXLVp2KmyyG4AI8PNHwO8sl6sx3tHt3I40X2zCLQGBkFQkZUgHMxnefzunE0/s400/PaintCanCraft1.jpg" />Use different color ribbon and knots along the handle for a nice finishing touch.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:arial;">For this paint can there were three bells that had the ribbon threaded through them and tied onto the handle as well.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361772269673896690" border="0" alt="Paint can kids craft activity" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFh5ZrBnq8TX0Mv-2sffvMye9NSGzRqgwftqEvXhOGDeqwnxMmbh9ePTAQY6g_SiqCMRxRWGRmcpBnT6h9UkcgKRVlv4s5dzN6sNs9chqF6U1dccXkFYlig4MxTM1Oy4Ufd7uteTEXJf4/s400/PaintCanCraft3.jpg" /></span></p>Johnston Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15449781758190988628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2853548494932877353.post-64783583256144887562009-07-22T22:55:00.006-06:002009-07-22T23:54:16.686-06:00Gift Box Kids Craft Activity<a name="giftboxkidscraftactivity"><span style="font-family:arial;">This Gift Box Children's Craft Activity</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> is a fun way for kids to make something for their friends, teachers, or anyone they may wish to give a small gift too. A child may use this box as a Valentine and fill it with candy, or use it to give a small gift. Putting a small amount of tissue paper inside the box is a nice touch. A child may also use it for their own, and put whatever they wish inside their own little box.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 382px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361515075417878962" border="0" alt="Gift Box Kids Craft Activity" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0otGwlGYur_K-Z0kOZ-bSfl53Vf3I0biFnvr4j3cJQ6n8JwGnszQNe1caE-qzz6CS2QMPDjjMm4HjOauwrmWSgaqdk5ki4Ai-cu_-d-H0_YNwycTYSxFOdaflHRKKC1agsMCHZjzaonU/s400/GiftBox1.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 377px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5361515067536421106" border="0" alt="Gift Box Kids Craft Activity" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWhbzdKyFY69OL6bvTGDGOrEuDb9vSzcfBOwpW83-PoTa3-WS_dyh55g429hoDtcyEwPcw3rL-2SwtIzisuFyK9TR9GzBpgP2gXrm6Yb8tjGsvAhpMN0xWkZxKymiSTTTLg5WKOniTu8g/s400/GiftBox.jpg" /> </span><div><div><div><div><div><div><span style="font-family:arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></div><div><h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Items Needed For Children's Craft</span></h1><span style="font-family:arial;">12 x 12 Piece of Cardstock</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Scissors</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Tape</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Ruler</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;"><br /></span></div><div><h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Directions For Gift Box Kids Craft</span></h1></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Purchase a 12 x 12 piece of paper.

They will love to be able to help. Here is a place to find </span><a href="http://www.ice-cream-recipes.com/" target="blank"><span style="font-family:arial;">Ice Cream Recipe's</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> for you.<br /><br /></span><h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Pin The Ice Cream On The Cone Birthday Party Game</span></h1><span style="font-family:arial;">This is a fun spin to pin the tail on the donkey.<br />Purchase some Brown felt and many different colors of felt.<br />Make a cone out of the brown felt & make scoops of ice cream out of the many colors.<br /><br /></span><h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Grand Sundae Ice Cream</span></h1><span style="font-family:arial;">When the homemade ice cream is done, have each child make their own Grand Sundae. Have all kinds of toppings available. Nuts (make sure the kids don't have allergies), Chocolate Sauce, Caramel Sauce, Butterscotch Sauce, Sprinkles, Whipped Cream, Gummy Bears, Crushed cookies, Sliced Banannas, or anything else you can think of.<br /><br /></span><h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Ice Cream Birthday Cake Idea</span></h1><span style="font-family:arial;">-Make your Choice of cake mix in a round cake pan. I used a pie pan.<br />-After the cake has cooled use a tooth pick to trace in about an inch to an 1 1/2 inches in on either side half-way down the cake. Then make a half circle. This half circle will be your ice cream.<br />- Cut along your line. It should look like the picture below.<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 386px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360674332363343906" border="0" alt="Ice Cream Birthday Cake" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbru1vfxvdJvbfUxzVlVxRKu0z5Mui7jf0gVvqUFuPnyXN_vIUFCCU0ol7IOu3i78nuSFERBzE9pvr6Cl_pnPI-pUyOQwfseRFTtB0zZOsTBQgVRM-Drqls7EQylivOCdfgiSRxLb0aeE/s400/IceCreamCake1.jpg" />Cut the piece you just cut off in half and put half of it below, it will become the bottom of your ice cream cup.<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 344px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360674326101643858" border="0" alt="Ice Cream Birthday Cake" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPz4ibtL5X3AtKrYQODOeNkyah8SQVwnrd-j3OAxEGs9spatTrxO-s3nsyqnZV-YkP3FoYJF6_ENf5kEOP0aNRXwGkyvJTu8PgtNkf098BJJ_pfHP1X2aOq_edmhw5TELOVwh-8j1va2A/s400/IceCreamCake.jpg" /></span><span style="font-family:arial;">Frost your cake, you may make the cup any color you would like, as well as your frosting, but white seems to make it more classic. Use brown frosting for chocolate sauce, or use real chocolate sauce or caramel. Then use sprinkles to spruce it up. You may also like to use a knife or toothpick to make lines in your cup to spruce it up just a bit.</span> <p><span style="font-family:arial;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 373px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360674339222116978" border="0" alt="Ice Cream Birthday Cake" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9MUFsattE8mFG99HB5u-vOE_1c22jThSW3CtCqeaJCCfE1DR5G3cFzXD-fpwR-V4PuHMtJiUH2Sc3MdLizH7G6WvPlSlN5FLj-Yz-ZQlSmvlegMyyPVMML3OxPbdMVTN7_8g564um6p4/s400/IceCreamCake2.jpg" /></span></p><p><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Ice Cream Party Fight</span></h1><span style="font-family:arial;">With your left over ice cream or a 5 quart bucket from the store, let the kids have an ice cream fight. It can get pretty messy, so let them know to dress in some grubby clothes. It's best to have the ice cream fight outside as well. It's sticky, and a whole lot of fun!</span>Johnston Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15449781758190988628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2853548494932877353.post-26460860087019177822009-07-08T09:36:00.006-06:002009-07-09T07:28:03.179-06:00Edward Cullen Dessert Recipe<a name="edward cullen dessert recipe"><span style="font-family:arial;">This is a fun recipe</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> that kids can enjoy to help with and eat, but the mom's can love also.<br /></span><div><div><h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Ingredients For Edward Cullen Dessert Recipe</span></h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Brownie Mix (ingredients for brownies)</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Instant Chocolate Pudding (and ingredients to make)</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Cool Whip</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Crushed up Oreos</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Crushed butterfinger</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></div><div><h1><span style="font-family:arial;">Directions for Edward Cullen Dessert Recipe</span></h1></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">- Make your brownies.
