using the medium flower pattern. |

Punch holes in the center of each flower with a hole punch
(or sharp pencil). |

Give flowers to your children along with some straws and some
yarn pieces 18" long. Wrap one end of the yarn pieces with
tape to create a "sewing needle". |

Then, show them how to lace the straw pieces and the flowers
onto the yarn. Alternate straw pieces and flowers. |

Help your children tie their necklaces around their necks
when they are finished lacing. |
