Paper Chain Decoration   How to Make a Paper Chain

You will need:

Colored Construction Paper
Paper Paste
Scissors
Pencil
Ruler

Make strips 1/2 inch wide and 3 inches long. Mark these measurements on the construction paper  and then cut the strips. Cut out about 30 strips. You will make a loop with each strip.

For the 1st loop, paste a strip together so it forms a loop. Place the second strip through the loop, and paste this strip together. You will continue making loops, and hooking the loop into the next chain, then pasting the ends together. Make the chain as long as you want! Makes a nice Christmas decoration or a necklace. The more colors you use, the prettier it will be.

The Paper Chain
When Claire Blake was diagnosed with breast cancer, she searched in vain for books to help her young sons understand the difficult situation of serious parental illness being faced by the family. Unfortunately, she found nothing written for children trying to cope with the anxiety and upset such news brings. Claire and two friends - one a writer, one an illustrator - used Claire's insights into her sons' struggle with her illness and treatment as a guide, and created The Paper Chain, a powerful aid for children in coping with a serious illness in the family.
