This Patriotic Paper Windsock craft is perfect for summer! Kids can make them to decorate a porch, patio, or even a room inside their home for the 4th of July. When the windsocks aren’t serving as a seasonal decoration, they are fun for kids to hold while they run through the yard. It’s fun to see the streamers ride the wind!

Last, tape a ribbon to the inside of the paper windsock so your child can hold it.
We hung our patriotic paper windsocks on the pergola and patio. They looked perfect for our celebration and the kids had a blast with them!
