Indian Tepee

From "Kids Create!" by Laurie Carlson
 
Indian Tepee
 
Materials:
Paper plate
3 drinking straws
Marking pens or tempera paints
Staples
Scissors
 
Cut the paper plate in half.  One half will make one tepee.  Decorate the plate with Indian designs using colorful markets or paints.  Rol the cut ends together to create a cone and staple.  Trim a bit of the point away to insert drinking straws so they stick out of the top, to look like the lodge poles the Indians used to keep their houses upright.  Cut a slit from the bottom and fold the edges back towards the tepee to create a door.
