Macys day parade float ideas for kids

Anna Demeritt on Instagram: "One of my FAVORITE activities during the school year is doing our own Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parades! We read the book “Balloons Over Broadway” to learn the history of the parade. Then we make our own floats! It’s SO fun! Check out my TpT to snatch these worksheets!"

I recently was tasked with building a city skyline for a parade float. As usual, I used cardboard and duct tape as most of my materials, along with some spray paint. I had to make a lot of buildings, so I figured out a basic form and then made slight variations to make the buildings vaguely unique. I also ended up doing some specific buildings from the St Paul skyline, but those were just variations on my generic buildings. Note: many times when I say 'I' in this post I mean 'we,' thanks…
