Crayons Banner

You will need:

Hot Glue

clothes pins

crayons

ribbon/string

I used two different size crayons and made a pattern with them. My 5 year loved that, he is really into patterns right now.  Glue crayons on pins and once it’s dry, pin them on to ribbon!

Wondering what to do with your crayons when you are done?  I am sharing over at Kid Activities Blog: Crayon Magnets and Teacher gifts.
