{Earth Day} Decor

Happy Earth Day!!!

Why not add to the celebration in your house by decorating with this adorable Earth Day Garland?

The best part is... this project is super-easy to make with your little ones.   Here's how you do it:

1) Use a plate to trace big circles onto blue paper, and have your kids cut them out.

 
2)  Decorate the circles with green paint.  (We made some hand prints and did others "freestyle".)

3) Use a hole punch and some twine to string the "earths" together.

That's it... a sweet little project that is as easy as 1, 2, 3!
