Tissue Paper Indian Corn
Tissue Paper Indian Corn is perfect for decorating the bulletin board or refrigerator. Little hands can use bigger pieces of tissue for making their corn kernels. It is a wonderful opportunity to discuss the contributions that native Americans contributed to the well being of early colonists.
Trivia:
Ornamental corn is often known as “Indian” corn, reflecting its origin. In fact, all corn (maize) originated in North America, most likely in Mexico, and there is evidence that corn has been cultivated there for at least 7,500 years. Source: SDSU Extension – Indian Corn & Popcorn
