Paper Lanterns on a String Make a Wish

Three paper lanterns hang from loose strings across a hand-drawn page with a wobbly, looping border. The tall round lantern on the left has scalloped rows and a patterned band at the bottom. The wide lantern on the right is covered in swirls, dots and wavy stripes. A small stacked lantern sits between them. Curly ribbons and streamers dangle below, and one string holds a feather and a little bow. In the lower left, three dandelion-like flower heads with tiny blossoms stand on thin stems. The words Come With Me are written along the string, and Make a Wish fills the bottom right in outlined letters. The patterns are small, so fine-tip markers or colored pencils work well. Try giving each lantern its own color family and filling the swirls and scallops with a different shade. The lettering is also fun to color in. It is a good page for quiet time or a birthday table activity.
