(Black/ White) Paper Poppy Lantern Craft - Memorial Day, Remembrance & Anzac Day

A collaboration with the fabulous Mrs Mactivity (do follow her store!) to bring to you these lovely Poppy Lanterns for Memorial Day, Remembrance Day or Anzac Day. A great addition to History Lesson plans. For Memorial Day, we also have a set of coloring pages of American Flag Lanterns for you to look at (Paper lantern designs focus Stars and Stripes and icon Red, White and Blue. Perfect for U.S. Patriotic celebrations).

These are a great alternative to "traditional" coloring pages!

A COLOR version is also available in this store.

Adding a tea light (electric or in a glass) to the centre of these Lanterns makes for a great membrance activity for kids.

Alternatively, string these up as a Poppy Lantern garland or pop othem over some fairy lights. Gorgeous decorations for Memorial Day, Remembrance Day or Anzac Day.

The color your own versions would be a great project to do whilst listening to a topical story and giving the children time to think about past events and commemorate veterans!
