The State Fair in Minnesota is a big deal. So, to celebrate the end of the summer, we took a trip to the fair at storytime!

Here is a simple craft we made when we had our Circus theme. The kids used a black Sharpie to draw a spiral on a small paper plate. Then they painted the plate with glitter paint. When it was dry, I taped a straw to the back. The kids loved them!
