How to Fold Paper Hats
Paper hats are a fun and useful craft for children of all ages. You can make paper hats to be used as a prop for plays or costumes, or just as a craft to pass the time. Since newspaper is the only material needed to create a paper hat, it also makes a great last-minute activity for kids. In addition, paper hats are safe for children to make without much adult supervision since there is no cutting or stapling involved.
