DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Kwanzaa Napkin Ring Craft
This makes a good craft for a Kwanzaa party. It's fairly
quick to do if you do the first four steps prior to the party. Then let the
party-goers glue on their own corn cobs, use stickers and sparkles to decorate, and inscribe
their names. It goes well as a table decoration along with the
matching Kwanzaa candle.
