"Hi, this is Stacey, and in this clip I will show you how to make a wind spinner for kids. The first step is to gather either a paper plate, card stock, anything that's thick, to make your wind spinner. After you've gathered it you're going to start by making a spiral and use a marker and just draw one on. After you have made your spiral, now you can decorate it, I chose markers to decorate. You can color in the lines, make designs, shapes, or write some words on it, or you can go outside of the lines, it's all up to you on how you want to decorate your wind spinner. The next step is to cut out your spiral. You're going to want to cut on the black line, and get a good pair of scissors, and just start cutting it. Take your time and make it look good. The more spirals you make the longer it will be, so if you don't want a very long spinner don't make as many spirals. Now that you have cut out your spiral you can cut it down to any size that you want. Lastly you're going to make a hole punch at the top and either tie string or yarn."
