This menorah activity for kids is much less flammable than
the real thing. Seeing as it’s made from reused cardboard tubes, paper and paint,
it’s totally flame-free. This is a favorite holiday craft of mine. It’s bright,
festive and even teaches the kids a lesson on being environmentally friendly
(they will need to save and reuse cardboard paper towel tubes). As a bonus, you
can extend the artsy fun for the full right days of Hanukkah. Your child can
add a new tissue paper flame each night!
Here’s What You’ll Need:
·
3 cardboard paper towel tubes
·
1 piece of poster board
·
Clear-drying school glue
·
Tempera paint
·
Wax paper—It makes a great palette for the
paint.
·
Yellow and orange tissue paper
·
Scissors
Here’s What to Do:
1. Cut
the three tubes into nine segments. Your child will have one for each candle,
plus an extra for the Shamash (or helper middle candle that lights the other
ones).
2. Line
the cardboard tubes up on the paper to make sure that they fit. Because your
child is dividing three tubes into nine parts, each segment will be equal
(sounds like a great opportunity to do something math, right?). Your child will
need to move the helper candle cardboard tube up a few inches higher than the
others so that it looks taller.
3. Pick
up the Shamash tube and have your child flatten it a bit (not all of the way,
just enough to make it easier to glue onto a flat surface). Squeeze a few lines
of glue on the flattest part.
4. Press
the tube down onto the poster paper.
5. Repeat
this step for the remaining eight candles.
6. Pour
the paint into golf ball-sized pools on the wax paper. At this point you may be
wondering, “Why didn’t my child paint the tubes first?” Well, she could. If she
wants to. I’ve found that it’s easier to glue the tubes onto the flat poster
board before they’re painted. That way none of the paint flakes off or smears.
7. Finger
paint the tubes. Your child can do solid finger prints or she can mix and blend
the hues.
8. Let
the paint dry.
9. Tear
the tissue paper into pieces that roughly 2x2-inches. There’s no need to
measure, simple use the size as a guide.
10. Dab the glue onto the poster board above
the cardboard tube. Press the paper onto the glue.
11. Repeat each night for a new candle!

ReplyDelete"Avengers: Endgame" picks up shortly after the events of "Infinity War" and presents a world grappling with the aftermath of Thanos' snap. The surviving heroes are burdened by guilt, grief, and a sense of powerlessness. This somber tone sets the stage for a narrative that is as much about emotional recovery as it is about physical conflict.
ReplyDeleteThe film shines a spotlight on the original Avengers team, allowing each character to confront their failures and seek a way to undo the damage caused by Thanos. Themes of sacrifice, redemption, and the enduring bonds of friendship are woven throughout the story. As the heroes embark on a daring mission through time to collect the Infinity Stones before Thanos can, they are forced to confront their past selves, leading to moments of self-discovery and growth.
Moringa oil is primarily composed of fatty acids, with oleic acid, a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid, accounting for the majority. This high oleic acid content gives Moringa Oil its remarkable stability and resistance to oxidation, making it an excellent choice for cooking and as a skincare ingredient.
ReplyDeleteBeyond oleic acid, Moringa oil contains other essential fatty acids, including palmitic acid and linoleic acid. These fatty acids play a crucial role in maintaining the skin's health and integrity, making Moringa oil a valuable addition to skincare routines.
