History of Mardi Gras for School Lesson

Well, pickle biscuits! That nose is a half-mask from Oriental Trading Company. I can't find it anywhere now. It came in an assortment of animals noses including: dog, elephant, duck, parakeet, and cat. I got a dozen for less than $5. You might check the Dollar Tree.

You will need:

1 Bag of Feathers (Dollar Tree)
1 Plastic Beak Nose/Mask
1 Plastic Half Mask
Glue Stick or Glue Gun

Masks for Mardi Gras Crafts.

For the bird mask above, I used a heavy duty glue stick with a large dose of patience. Glue the Nose on first and then plan the feather design by laying them out before gluing. Stick feathers up under the mask and tuck the tips under the plume of the other feathers. 

The masks above are available for less than $1 each on Amazon.com. Click the link below the image to purchase.

St. Patrick's Day Parade Banner Craft and Fun Leprechaun Ideas

St.Patrick's Day Leprechaun Craft Banner: Fun Ideas for Parade

What can you do for St. Patrick's Day with kids? Make some Saint Patrick's Day crafts and have a parade. This banner is an easy leprechaun craft for St. Patrick Day. Enjoy!

Felt and Construction Paper Banner Leprechaun Craft.

Make a St. Patrick's Day theme mobile for your room, or put it on a stick and carry it in a parade around town! These fun st. patrick's day ideas are easy to make with tacky glue, paper, fabric scraps, and an old wire hanger.

Glue the felt over a hanger.

We took a sparkly, green pipe-cleaner and wrapped the hook end of the hanger. Then, we draped a piece of green felt over the base and glued it with tacky glue.

Next, we cut out shapes from scraps of construction paper and made a leprechaun with a pot of gold. Use tacky glue or a glue stick. Other St. Patrick's Day themes would be a rainbow, a snake, or a simple shamrock. Whatever you choose have fun!

St. Patrick's Day Parade Banner Craft and Fun Leprechaun Ideas.

For the finishing touch, we cut colorful ribbon the width of the felt and glued it to the top and bottom. Use a dowel rod and turn the banner into a flag to carry in a parade. It's simple and you will have fun playing make believe in your very own holiday parade! Follow the Leprechaun to more St. Pat's Crafts and Activities: Shamrocks Rock
