Moon Book to Read with this Moon Craft

We love to have a book tie in with our crafts. Yes, my girls are older but we still do this. It helps them remember the book and why we are doing the craft. We read the book: The Moon Book by Gail Gibbons.

How we Made the Washi Tape Moons

We took white paper and started to put washi tape on it. Everyone had their own ideas. What is what makes these crafts fun. There is no right or wrong way to make it! We had straight lights, mixed up everywhere and anything we could things of that would be fun.

After we finished the cutting we put glue on the back of the moon. You want a lot to make sure it sticks to the black glitter cardstock. One we did lots of glue stick and others we just used glue.
