Presidents’ Day is celebrated the third Monday in February every year, with this year’s date being Feb. 15. As another presidential election is under way, many classrooms will be talking about how we elect a president, who’s going to be running and what it means to have such an important job. You can keep the discussion going back at home by making some craft projects that celebrate some of our country’s earliest leaders, thanks to this week’s roundup of Presidents’ Day crafts.
Log Cabin Craft
When it comes to Abraham Lincoln, log cabins are a must. No Time for Flashcards shows you how your child can transform a stack of craft sticks into a wooden log cabin DIY.
Abraham Lincoln Craft
Time to get ready for a presidential selfie! 123 Homeschool 4 Me turned a plain paper plate into a Lincoln mask that your child can make, too.
Mini President Figurines
Your child can create a mini president doll thanks to a quick Wikipedia image search for a particular individual. From there, take a cue from My Paper Crane’s tutorial for Etsy on how to transform a wooden doll blank into a historical figurine.
President Lincoln & Washington Toilet Paper Tube Craft
I think it’s safe to say these two presidents would never have dreamed of being turned into a toilet paper tube DIY! Surviving a Teacher’s Salary shares one of her favorite craft projects for children to make this time of year.
