From "Kids Create!" by Laurie Carlson
Materials
Empty cardboard ice cream container, with top and bottom cut
out
Construction paper in red, white and blue
Markers or crayons
White Glue
String or yarn
Crepe paper or tissue paper in red, white and blue
Paper punch
Scissors
Cover the empty container by gluing construction paper over
it (your choice of colors). Draw and color an American Flag on two
sides of the container. Cut long streamers from the crepe paper or
tissue paper and glue them to one open end of the container.
Punch four holes in the other end of the container, spacing
them equally around the rim. Thread the string or yarn through the
holes and double knot. Tie all four strands together at the top.
Tie knotted ends and use it to hand your windsock from the edge
of a deck, roof or tree branch.
Note: If you have a small, already made flags, you can
glue these on the box instead of drawing and coloring the flags.
