Rocketship Confetti

Celebrate the Fourth of July by making these fun confetti filled rockets out of an empty paper roll.

Alphamom has a great craft for the 4th of July making rocket ship confetti poppers using a toilet paper roll, scrapbooking paper, ribbon, confetti and twine. Making the confetti itself will keep the kids busy for quite a while.

Good for ages 6 and up.

Moda bake shop shares how to make a confetti cracker and is an easier craft for younger kids.  She uses candy instead of confetti for a favor, but kids will still get the confetti effect and have fun throwing it themselves.
