When summer finally arrives, we turn our minds to all the celebrations we’ll be having – including Memorial Day and Independence Day. We might mark the occasion with a picnic or perhaps a barbecue for friends and family. One thing’s for sure, you will want to decorate for the day and what could be better than hand made decorations lovingly created by you and the kids. Help them to make patriotic items to celebrate America. Here are some crafts and decorations that kids can make for this July 4th. It’s also a great way to keep little fingers busy!
Great for 4th of July, Memorial Day, or President’s Day!

A 4th of July Tee Shirt Craft is great fun for kids and gives them something to wear on the day. Begin by painting their hand with blue and print this in the top left corner of the tee shirt.
