When I was a kid, we made paper chains out of construction paper. You would cut strips of paper and make it round and glue it together. You would join these together to make a nice long chain for decorating with. We would use different colors, depending on what was needed. Green and Red for Christmas. These were nice for hanging on the Christmas tree. It was a fun project. Quick and easy to learn, especially if you were not the real craft type person. I was never really great at crafts. This project can be done for so many occasions. You could use Fall colors, or Red for valentine’s day. They hang up nicely in different spots. It is a project that kids can do at home and at school. Paper chains used to be hung up in our classroom as class decorations. We even had a contest on who could make the longest chain. It was fun. So if there is a new teacher out there who needs an idea, there you go.
