Celebrate the Thanksgiving harvest the old fashioned way using
popcorn and seasonal dried fruit. This craft is a super addition to classroom
Thanksgiving celebrations. Younger children may need assistance.
You'll need:
Large needle
string or fishing line
popped corn
dried fruit; raisins, cranberries, apple and apricot
pieces of orange peel (optional )
How to Make It:
Measure the length of line that you need to fit the necklace over a child's head. Don't forget to leave enough for tying off. Thread the needle and string the popcorn and other items alternately. Children can wear their necklace for a while and then hang the necklace onto a tree or shrub for the local wildlife.
Tip: The orange peel adds a very pleasant scent. Put a bit of all natural peanut butter on the necklace before placing it outside. The oils and protein are great for the birds!
