In honor of Remembrance Day I wanted to come up with an easy poppy flower craft to try with the kids. The poppy flower is a flower connected to remembrance.This craft can also be used for Veterans Day. Both holidays are on November 11th and are observed to remember those who have served.
I searched through my craft supplies and found cupcake liners and craft sticks. I knew these could make a simple yet pretty Poppy Flower Craft for us to make. While we worked on the craft I told the kids we would make our flowers and set the on the window sill to remember all the brave men and women who fight to keep others safe. We could remember this every time we looked at our flowers. I just loved how they turned out and so did the kids.
