What a storm! Oh, how scary!
Don't be scared! Do you know what we can do? No, what?
We can make a lantern! So, Emily, what do we need?
We need a clean empty glass jar, some coloured tissue paper, craft glue, a paintbrush and a candle. So, the first thing to do is to cut or tear some shapes out of the coloured tissue paper.
You can cut rectangles, triangles, stars, hearts or circles. Whatever you like!
Great! Next, put some glue on the jar and stick the shapes on.
A purple rectangle, an orange triangle, a yellow star, a red heart and a blue circle. How colourful! Then, cover the whole jar with craft glue.
Finished! Perfect! Now we just need to put the candle inside the jar.
Careful now! Always ask an adult to help you light a candle. Look at this!
Oooh! This spooky lantern is for Halloween! And this snowy lantern is for Christmas!
