Autumn Placemat
This placemat in Autumn colours makes a fun seasonal table decoration which
the kids will enjoy weaving.
You will need: Sheet of
brown card
Two shades of orange paper
Instructions:
Fold the card in half lengthways. Cut long lines in the card about 1 inch
apart and about 1 inch from the edge of the card. Cut the paper into strips
about 1 inch wide. Take a strip of paper and pass it under the card and then up
through the first slit, down through the second and back up through the third
and so on until you reach the other side of the card. Push it up so it sits as
close to the top of the brown card as it can reach.
Repeat with a different colored strip of paper, starting the other way, down
through the first slit and up through the second and so on. Repeat until the
card is full.
Laminating will protect your mat.
