Instructions

  • Have each of the kids pick out a piece of paper they want to decorate.
    Windsock supplies
  • Let them go wild with stickers, tape, tissue paper pieces, crepe paper, and markers decorating how they want. Fun to let their creativity come out, especially after a full day of camping.

  • After they are done decorating, you will need to roll it into a cylinder shape tube and using either tape, glue, or my quick and simple stapler, attach the ends together to where you’re creating a tube.

  • Once you have the tube, its time to add the balloon ribbon. Using the hole puncher, punch 4 or more holes along the bottom of the tube.
    windsock activity
  • Cut the ribbon however long they want. I like to cut them around 2-3 feet and then have them tie or you may need to help the little ones tie them to the holes you punched.
  • Two more holes on the top are needed to hang your windsock. One more piece of ribbon about 6 inches. Tie each end to the two holes.
    Hanging Paper Windsocks
  • Viola, you have yourself a campsite windsock.
