My Mom came in town for a few days and I thought- what a great time to study Native American Indians and make tepees! We went to the Natural History Museum and then "painted" our "hides" with "traditional" Native American pictures and then my Mom sewed them together, we cut some wood, drilled some holes, and viola! Tepees! The kids are having so much fun playing in them and they got so creative with their pictures on them, I had them pick their favorite side to get their picture taken with. These were made from one that my Mom's friend bought at a craft show, she made the pattern off of it and we put them together for about $12 each. This was a really fun thing to do with the kids.
