Because scrapbooking is so popular, I wanted to design an easy craftivity for MLK Day using the simple pinwheel design.
If you don’t celebrate MLK Day, these make wonderful Valentine’s Day cards too.
I’ve included mini MLK photo tiles (Public Domain) for children to glue on their pinwheels. I also show a variety of examples for placement.
I
chose a black and white theme to symbolize diversity, but you could use
whatever colors you like.
Using my photo tutorial, demonstrate how to glue the pieces down, so they look like a pinwheel. It’s
really quite simple and easy, but looks complicated, with very cool
results.
I’d do this as a “monkey see-monkey do-what-I-do” whole group
activity with little ones.
