The girls loved making this flag bag…they were pretty excited about the super-straight masking tape lines!!

Flag Bag Craft for Kids

Supplies:

• White paper bag
• Masking tape
• Crayons, markers, or paint
• Blue construction paper
• Star stickers

1)  Place masking tape across the paper sack attaching it to the table.  DO NOT press the tape down very hard on the sack (you’ll have a hard time removing it without tearing the sack if you do)!!  Painter’s tape might work well, too!

2)  Color the non-taped areas red.  (We used crayons, but you could use markers, paints, or whatever!)  Carefully remove the tape.

3)  Cut a rectangle out of blue paper.  Glue it in the corner.  Add stars.  (We used a white crayon, but younger children would have a much easier time with stickers!)

There you have it – a simple bag for a picnic or a special 4th of July Treat Bag!
