Making Candy Canes

Materials
Red construction paper
White construction paper cut into wide strips
Glue sticks
Scissors
Candy cane shape pattern

Directions
Trace around the candy cane pattern onto red construction paper.  Cut strips of white construction paper to fit proportionally onto the candy cane shape.  The strips do not need to be the exact length to fit the width of the candy cane. Invite your child to glue the white strips onto the candy cane shape. Once the glue has dried, cut out the candy cane shape. Preschool age children can be encouraged to cut on the lines of the candy cane.
