[Nfb-krafters-korner] A cute, simple craft for rainy days

[Blindhands at aol.com]

It is good to here you Grandma talking about the little guy.  We were  all 
wondering how you were doing.
 
I wish my little guy was closer to me.  I guess I am lucky as I have  the 
Princesses near.

Hello  All, We just moved to Florida on Monday and it has been 
raining almost  everyday, so there has been a lot of talk about 
rain.  My two year  old grandson, Kingston, came home from day 
care  with a cute umbrella  craft  so I thought I would share the 
idea with  you.

Materials; one lightweight paper plate
paints, markers or  crayons
pipe cleaners

Directions; Have the child decorate the  underside of the plate 
with either paint, markers or crayons.  This  will become the top 
of the umbrella.  Punch a hole in the center of  the plate.  poke 
a pipe cleaner through the hole and bend it around a  few times so 
it will not go back through the hole.  Attach another  pipe 
cleaner on the opposite side of the hole and bend it a few times  
so it will stay in place.  Bend the bottom of the last pipe  
cleaner into a j shape to form the handle of the umbrella shaft.
Note,  If you have the really long pipe cleaners, you can use only 
1 and twist it  on either side of the hole in the plate.

This is a  simple craft  but very appropriate at certain times of 
the year.  Kingston, who is  just learning to talk is now saying, 
more rain, more  rain.
