Mount Rushmore Craft

Isn’t this the most adorable Mount Rushmore Craft?

We’re learning about different American Symbols, icons and landmarks and I stumbled across this craft last week and had to make it!

Thankfully Sandy from Busy Bee Kids Crafts let us share this adorable craft with you!

If you’ve never been over to BBKC, let me tell you that this is not the only adorable craft you’ll find there!

Some of my favorites are the Paper Bag Turkey, and the Corn Wrapped Place Setting (perfect for the upcoming Thanksgiving Holiday!)

You can check out these and more in their Kids Craft Index.

American Symbols: Bald Eagle Craft

Since Sissy is officially in First Grade, it’s time for us to learn all about American Symbols! So over the next few weeks I’ll be adding in some fun Patriotic Themed crafts and activities that we do.

Yes, I do realized that it is November and the rest of the world is doing Thanksgiving stuff.

But that’s just how we roll.

Maybe you’ll find something you like and you can bookmark it for June and July activities next year?

Anyway, I’ve paired these crafts up with a series of books called “American Symbols” which are geared towards children ages 4-8.

For our first craft we did the Bald Eagle:

Stay tuned for more American Symbol Crafts!
