Spin Art ~ Simple Flag Craft for kids
Your kids will love these simple red, white and blue flags. Â My kids love creating spin art and this simple twist on a traditional flag was so fun to make. Â This simple American Flag Craft is perfect for the 4th of July, Memorial Day or any other patriotic holiday.
Spin Art Flag Materials:
- Spin art machine ~ learn how to make your own here
- Red, white and blue paint
- White paper cut into a circle
- Old toothbrush
- Small sponge
To make the background, use only red paint in the spin art machine. Â Boring I know, but it will create simple red and white stripes.
Next, the kiddos stamped blue squares with a sponge.
The kids had so much fun making the stars. We could have simply used a stick to dot the stars, but this was way more fun. Â The kids rubbed, banged and scraped a paint filled toothbrush on a stick. Â Sending little spatters of paint flying across their art work. Â This was the kids favorite part of the whole project.
Simple American Flag Craft
Spin art, sponge painting and paint splattering all rolled into one simple project. Â This may be one of the cutest flags we have made so far! Â So simple and completely adorable!
We love creating spin art.  A few of our favorite projects have included a spin art snowman, watercolor spin art and a homemade spin art machine (using an electric drill).
