President’s Day Crafts
February 15, 2008
I hope you had a great Valentine’s Day! Since President’s Day is on Monday, I thought I’d post some President’s Day crafts even though it’s the last minute… just in case you’re looking for something to do this weekend.
Mini Stovepipe Hat - This mini stovepipe hat looks just like the one that President Lincoln wore and it’s really simple to make.
“Edible” Log Cabin - Another super-simple President’s Day craft project. This isn’t something that kids will be able to keep, but it’s a fun little project that will let them play with their food!
Presidential Powdered Wig - Not only will the kids have fun making these wigs, but they’ll have a blast wearing and playing with them. They are just too fun! Even younger children can get in on this one because they are so easy to make.
Presidential Mobile - This is a really easy to do mobile that looks great when it’s done. It makes a nice way to honor our most notable presidents on President’s Day. I’ve even included a printable bust of Lincoln and Washington to use for this craft project.
Simple Paper Log Cabin - Younger children really won’t understand what President’s Day is all about… most can’t grasp the concept of what a President is, but they will enjoy the idea of building a log cabin on their papers.






I really love the wig idea. I may try it after reading the story about George Washington’s Teeth.
