So the arts and crafts project I chose to write about is dedicated to Veteran's Day. I know it's a little early, but I did the project with two of children I babysit just to see how well it would work. The project entailed making a cross and using symbols and words to express how grateful we are for the all the hard work our troops go through each and every day. Before I started, I spoke the kids about the importance of Veteran's day and why we celebrate it. The craft was really fun, and gave the children to use their cutting skills and helped them work on their abilities to draw straight lines. The kids took turns coloring with read and black crayons, as well as write special words for our troops. The entire project took about 30 minutes and clean up was very quick!
