Patriotic Crafts for Toddlers and Preschoolers

Are you looking for some easy crafts to do with your toddler or preschooler to celebrate the Fourth of July? Here are six crafts that provide a variety of different skills but would be easy and fun for you and your child!

Paper Plate Crafts

Does it get much better than an easy paper plate craft? Paper Plate Crafts are some of my favorites! They are usually cheap and super easy. Here are a couple you need to try this summer.

This Star Wreath Craft is super easy and inexpensive to create. If you don’t want to cut or punch out the paper stars, you could use stickers or star foam pieces.

If your little one loves to paint, this is the craft for you. This Patriotic Star  is also a paper plate craft and only requires a few supplies. Plus it is even perfect for toddlers!

Firework Process Painting

Process Painting is another one of my favorite activities to do with the kids. It is really fun for all ages. Process art allows kids to just enjoy the process of creating. It is all about the experience versus a certain end result. There are a few ways to do process painting for fireworks.

Fireworks Painting is a quick and easy Patriotic Craft for kids!

We had a blast using cardboard tubes for Fireworks Painting. Once we were finished painting with the tubes, we added glitter glue for a little sparkle. If you like this one, you may also enjoy Fireworks Salt Painting.

You could do this craft for any holiday. We have even made wrapping paper using this technique and it turned out so cute!
