Kids Activities
A young child wearing a red t-shirt is holding a homemade patriotic windsock adorned with red, white, and blue star stickers and streamers. The windsock is made from a large sheet of white construction paper rolled into a cylinder shape, with the star stickers visible on the outside and the colorful streamers attached to the inside. The child is outside on a grassy lawn, with the lush green backdrop suggesting a sunny day. The windsock project appears to be a fun and creative Fourth of July or patriotic-themed craft activity for kids.
