President's Day - Cherry Tree Craft

Next Monday is President's Day and if you're thinking about adding a few fun crafts into your lesson plans, we found several that looked like fun! The first project we found at All Kids Network and would go perfect with a mini lesson on George Washington.
Supplies You'll Need
- Drawing paper
- Brown and green craft paint
- Paper towel
- Red pony beads or tempera paint
- White school glue
You've surely heard the story about George Washington and the cherry tree. We think it's a great reminder to children that honesty is important. This fabulous craft is inspired by the famous story. We love the various elements - the finger painted tree trunk, the paper towel painted leaves, and the three-dimensional cherries! They create such a fun result and the craft offers a great story reminder for your students to take home.
