This native american indian vest craft was inspiried by a kindergarten class project from years ago. With this preschool craft,I was able to complete it with children as young as two. They painted, used markers and even cut the fringe with scissors. You could also have the children cut out shapes and glue them on as well.
Materials:
1 large brown paper bag
Items to decorate -colored paper, markers, paint, etc.
White glue
Scissors
What you do
Cut paper bag down the front and around the bottom of the bag for the opening and neck area. Cut a hole in each side for the arms.
Cut the bottom edge of the vest so it is fringed. Cut two pieces of fringe from colored paper and glue one to each side of the front of the vest.
Cut Indian designs from colored paper and glue to vest to decorate it. You can also color your designs on with markers or paint.
optional: cut out shapes from construction paper apply with glue, add feathers, string beads and add them
