DIY Tangled Inspired Paper Lanterns

I am trying to pick some of the Disney movies a lot of kids love, for the week ahead.

I love Tangled, I think the way they did it was great!

I was always a huge Beauty & the Beast fan and while that will forever be

my all time favorite the newer Disney movies are just awesome

with the animation and the songs.

I have a whole Disney playlist on my phone for Celeste and you guessed

it Tangled is on there, that is one of her favorites as well.

I found this DIY and knew I had to blog it that way when she is older we

can make them together.

Here's what you'll need:

construction paper

toilet paper rolls

scissors

glue

crayons

Create:

First, put construction paper around the toilet paper roll.

Measure the construction paper and cut it to fit to size.

It doesn't have to be perfect.

On some of the rolls you can decide to add extra decorations.

Like the Rapunzel sun and swirls before you glue it on to the toilet paper roll.

Remember this will be the inside of your lantern so you won’t see all the decorations.

Next it’s time to make the outside of the lantern. Measure another piece of

paper to fit around your toilet paper roll.

Then fold it in half. Cut from the folded side. Leave about

an inch edge on the paper.

After you unfold the paper you can secure the two ends to make the lantern.

Now it’s time to add the outer paper on to the toilet paper roll. You can either

use a stapler to secure the paper or glue.

Add an extra touch by using a battery operated tea light

to the lantern to make it glow.

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.
