We used to make these tissue paper crafts (or crepe paper crafts) in elementary school.  Anyone else remember these?  I’ve showed you how to make tissue paper crafts before, so you can check that out (it has a video to get an even better idea). 

 

 

 

Easy Rainbow Crafts for Kids to Make!

Materials you will need:

6-7 sheets of gift tissue paper, in colors of the rainbow (like these here)

Free printable rainbow template (at bottom of this post)

craft glue

scissors

pencil with a good eraser

 

 

Tissue Paper Rainbow Craft for Kids

Cut your gift tissue paper into strips and then into 1-2 inch squares.  You can do this quickly by cutting them all at once.  The squares do not need to be perfect.  A rough square shape works just fine.  Be sure to use different colors of tissue paper, obviously the colors of the rainbow will be the best.

 

 

 

How to make tissue paper crafts

Pinch and twist single square of tissue paper around a pencil eraser. Repeat with the other pieces of colored tissue paper. 

 

 

 

Tissue Paper Rainbow Craft for Kids

Apply a dot of glue to the flat end of the twisted pieces of tissue paper and stick them to the rainbow printable.

New movie coming out that I want to see. I remembe New movie coming out that I want to see. I remember when this happened in 1989. The boy Josh was lost in an abandoned mine in UT for 5 days. It was a miracle how they found him. He was about my age so it made an impression on me. Now this true story has been made into a movie called Faith of Angels. @faithofangelsfilm 
Check out the trailer here: https://upvir.al/158749/lp158749  DO YOU REMEMBER this news story?
Probably one of the best shows I’ve seen at @hal Probably one of the best shows I’ve seen at @halecentretheatre lately!! The Nutty Professor had us laughing all the way to the end and the music was clever and fun.  If you’ve been trying to decide about this one, I’d say don’t miss it! #halecentretheatre #thenuttyprofessormusical #halecentretheatresandy
Did you go to 801 Day at @hoglezoo in Utah? Ticket Did you go to 801 Day at @hoglezoo in Utah? Tickets were only $8.01 on 8/01 and the zoo opened at 8:01 am. 
I went with my nieces and nephews and it was VERY BUSY! (like Disneyland busy). We arrived about 11 am and every parking lot was completely full and side streets were filling fast. Needless to say we had to walk a bit in the heat just to get to the front gate. There were lines to get in, lines, at snack shops, and definitely a line for the train. BUT we saw some animals—-lions, tigers, bears (oh my!)…plus giraffes, zebras, and a leopard.  It was definitely worth $8.01 but it’s not for the faint of heart. A fun adventure! #hoglezoo #801day #familyactivities #hoglezooutah 🐒🐅🦒🐘🦓
So the amount of car wash centers popping up every So the amount of car wash centers popping up everywhere has made me curious. Why are they everywhere?! So we decided to try is and see what the fuss was all about. Here’s the PROS AND CONS we found:

Pros:
• Gentle yet very thorough wash—no scratching!
• Attendants right there to help you
• Fun lights and cool sprayers—it’s like a show!
• Powerful vacuums and extras for detailing

Cons:
• So expensive! This is not your regular $5 car wash. 
• They have limited hours. This one closes by 7 pm so no car washing whenever you want
• Kinda an eyesore to have a car wash in every corner in town. 

What do you think? What Pros and Cons have you found? Do you like these big car was centers?
