Paper Plate Swirls

These are really cool and beautiful if you run with them, because they swirl around as you run. Be careful though, the string gets twisted easily and can break.  But if you untwist it every once in a while you should be golden!  

Basically, cut a paper plate in a swirl.  Draw or paint on it.  Then staple one end of it to a string and the other to a large Popsicle stick.

Done.

These really do look beautiful swirling in the air, and the kids loved how they spiraled around as they ran.
