Invite children to paint a paper towel tube with yellow tempera paint. Once dry, encourage children to paint the tube with gold glitter paint. Set aside to dry.
2.
Next, help children tape different colored pipe stems to the inside of one end of the paper towel tube.
3.
Decorate the outside of the tube with wiggly eyes, and glue on a glitter pom-pom for the nose. Now kids are ready to celebrate Independence Day with their own Fourth of July firecracker!
