Enchanted Learning Software's Patriotic Pinwheel More Kinder Crafts A simple-to-make pinwheel for older children. (This craft uses a push-pin, so it is not suitable for younger children.) |
|
 |
 |
Start by making two square pieces of paper.To start making a square, put the two pieces of paper together. Fold the corner of the pieces of paper over as shown. |
 |
To finish making the squares, cut off the small rectangles, forming two squares (which are already folded into a triangle). |
 |
Fold the triangle in half.
Unfold the paper. |
 |
 |
Decorate one side of each sheet of paper. |
 |
Put the undecorated sides of the paper together.
Make four cuts along the fold lines - about halfway to the center. |
 |
Punch four holes in the pinwheel, one at each corner. |
 |
Gently gather each of the four points (with a hole) to the center. (Be careful not to crease the paper.)
Push a push-pin through the four punched holes through the center of the pinwheel to attach the pinwheel to the side of a pencil's eraser. |
