Whether you are preparing for Chinese New Year or the Boy Scout Blue and Gold Dinner, here's a great dragon banner that's fun to make.

Cardstock or Construction paper

Thick yarn or paper fasteners (available at office supply shops or department stores)

Scissors

Glue

Markers or crayons

Wooden sticks or paper tubes (such as from gift wrapping paper, etc.).

Make the Chinese Dragon Banner a class or troop project involving many children. Click on printables for the patterns and print all sections of this dragon on cardstock paper. Print many copies of the body section for a longer dragon. Use hole punch to connect the sections with yarn or paper fasteners. Make sure the sections are somewhat loose so that the dragon will wiggle with movement. Glue or staple sticks to various sections of the dragon's body for children to hold. Dragon can be made for one child or many children to enjoy! Pictures below are for color suggestions, but have fun and make up your own.
