Car Air Freshener
Summer's a great time to break out the suds and sponges and teach your child about taking care of the family car. After everything's squeaky clean, your child can create a car freshener to give your wheels a cool, fresh scent.
Here's what you need to make your own car freshener:
Step One: Cut the construction paper. We cut ours in the shape of a pine tree, but you can use any shape you'd like: a flower, apple, leaf, or maybe a doll. Punch a hole at the top of your shape. Add a couple drops of essential oil to your dried needles or herbs.
Step Two: Spread glue on one side of the paper and sprinkle with a plentiful supply of dried needles or herbs. Let dry, then do the same on the other side of the paper. Put the pipe cleaner through the hole and hang it over the dashboard!
