| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |

| Acrylic paint
Dowel Ribbon Rubber tip | |
| Seasons: Fourth of july | |
| Materials: doilies, ribbon | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. |  To make one, first place a 5/8-inch-diameter dowel under
your child's arm as shown. Mark where her fingertips reach, then
carefully cut the dowel to this length (a job for
parents). |
| 2. | Paint the dowel with acrylic paint and let it dry. |
| 3. | Next, cut eight 2-foot lengths of colorful ribbon. Fold 4 of the ribbon pieces in half over one end of the dowel, then push a 5/8-inch rubber tip (available at hardware stores) onto the dowel to secure the ribbons in place. Repeat at the other end, and your baton is ready to twirl. |
