Let’s make a beautiful set of Kings for Epiphany! I really feel that Epiphany and three King’s Day is commonly missed. We like to rejoice Christmas for so long as attainable and benefit from the 12 Day of Christmas celebrations that ened on January sixth with 3 King’s Day and the Three Smart Males! So, we revisit our favorite children’ craft materials the standard rest room paper roll and have a go at making the three magi – Gaspar (or Caspar), Melchior, and Balthasar!
After all the bathroom paper roll Kings could be made as a part of any Fairy Story Crafting session and you’ll simply flip them into Bathroom Paper Roll queen’s and princesses too! As you will note my little woman wished a few of these as nicely. Nicely why not!
UPDATE: We first made this very joyful Christmas Craft again in 2013. Say aaaaawwwww!
