In "Love Connects Us," a Tapestry of Faith program
Materials for Activity
- Card stock in various colors
- Scissors
- Hole punch
- String or yarn
- Pencils/markers
Preparation for Activity
- Draw a bucket on card stock and cut it out to make a template. Then, make a sample ornament: Trace the template on another piece of card stock, cut out the shape, punch a hole in the top, pass a piece of yarn through the hole, and secure the yarn with a knot so the bucket shape can be hung.
- You may wish to make a few bucket templates.
- Set out template(s), sample(s), and materials on work tables.
Description of Activity
As participants arrive, invite them to make bucket ornaments. Tell the children that later they will hang the ornaments on the Rainbow Wall Hanging.
Including All Participants
If any participants have difficulty with small motor control, encourage them to choose a sheet of card stock and hold a template on it for another child to trace a bucket. Children who have trouble tracing and cutting may be able to decorate ornaments with markers.
This work is made possible by the generosity of individual donors and congregations. Please consider making a donation today.
