LIGHT CATCHER

This is another cool summer project for you and your kids.

'Got this idea from Smart Parenting Philippines March 2011 issue; under How-to column entitled Easy, breezy summer by Grace Marcellana. I just changed some materials that are not readily available in our home.

Here's a photo of the light catcher I made with my 3 y/o daughter:

The main material here are the old CDs that reflect sunlight that's why it is called light catcher.

MATERIALS:

Old CDs

Colored paper

Sequins

Flower bead

Crayons

Ribbon

Glue

Sticks (2)

Scissors

PROCEDURE:

1. I got these two (2) wooden sticks, my father's scraps after repairing an old wooden bed. I covered them with colored paper.

2. I arranged them into a cross and tie them using the ribbon.

3. The next thing I did was to decorate the CDs by tracing them in colored paper, cut, then ornate.

My little darling wants to make one too.

This is a sunflower according to her. =)

4. Lastly, I glued them on the CD, strung the CDs and tied them on the sticks.

FINAL OUTCOME:

There goes Orange's sunflower.

Glimmer, shimmer, shine! (*-*)
