Celebrate President’s Day with a simple Abraham Lincoln craft for kids.
After we have created the George Washington craft we have decided to add also an Abraham Lincoln craft to our collection of President’s Day crafts.
You can use both crafts in the classroom, if you are a teacher, or you can craft with your kids at home.
