Streamers

These colorful streamers are so much fun to make, and are a great way to brighten up any outdoor space — they are completely waterproof! The girls had a blast, and we were left with very little clean up afterwards!
To make your own, lay down strips of inexpensive packaging tape with the sticky side up, and invite your child over to sprinkle bits of tissue paper on top.
This is a fun way to practice fine-motor skills, plus it is so bright and colorful!
Next, place another piece of packaging tape on top with the sticky side down. Press firmly along the strip. I cut each streamer into half width-wise, and then we decorated our backyard with these fun streamers!!
I love how they shine when the light goes through them!
The girls were so proud of their artwork!!
