Create a Crown

Materials

  1. Paper
  2. Scissors
  3. Glue
  4. Crayons
  5. Sparkles and glitter

Directions

Cut the paper to look like an open crown shape. Let your child decorate it with crayons, glue, sparkles, and glitter. When the decoration is dry, fit it to your child's head and staple or glue the ends together. Play king or queen for a day and have your child wear the crown. Encourage your child to make more crowns for the entire family to be worn at the next family event.
