 My name is Denea and I'm from the Long Beach Public Library and today we will be making Egyptian collars. These are really neat. I'm going to show you different ways that you can make it with whatever you have at home, but before we start I just want to make sure if you haven't signed up for the summer reading program go to longbeach.beanstack.org to sign up today. If you already signed up for the summer reading program don't forget to type in pirate in the activity tab in beanstack so you can get credit for watching today's program. Okay so let's start. So as you can tell I am using a paper plate to make the collar. If you don't have a paper plate you can also use construction paper. This is what I use and I'll show you the different types of collars that I made, but before we start so I'm going to use a regular paper plate. If you have a paper plate at home you might have like different designs. I'm using a really light flimsy kind of paper plate and I'm going to get a marker and I'm going to make a Y like the Y and you're going to put it out and you're going to mark it there and then you're going to just follow along and kind of like make a happy face. So you're going to do that and after that you will cut it. So what I did I'll show you. So this is the end product. I'm just going to take some scissors. We got some safety scissors right here and you're going to start cutting and I'm going to cut on the outer part of the marker so that you will not see the lines. So I'm going to keep cutting cutting cutting and then this is what you get. So also if you are going to use construction paper this is what you'll do. So it's kind of like you're going to make two happy faces. You're going to go one and then two. You can either do a free hand and you're just going to cut along so what you're going to do is you're going to cut on the inside and you're going to cut on the outside of the inner one. And once you're done with that this is what you're going to get. It looks like a little bib. So I'm going to show you the different types of things that you can do to decorate. If you just only have crayons you can just use crayons. I have markers. Also you can use the glue. You have regular glue which is a good or you can use a glue stick. Can't forget the glitter. You have glitter. And I made this one with paint. We have tempera paint. I'm sorry this is biocolor paint but you can use watercolor. You can use whatever and this is the result of that what I used for this. And also we also have this with regular crayons. This is what I did with markers. This one can get a little bit messy because we're going to use glitter. So we have this. We have glitter. We have markers and since we're over here at the library we had some leftover jewels. So I glued it on top so you can do that. And that's pretty much it. It's very simple. If you want to learn more about Egyptians we have so many books here at the library that you can check out and read at home. And I have some books right here that we are. We have some of the many books but I also have this one book that I just finished reading. It's a really good book. It's by Tamar Brown. It's a shipwreck sailor. An Egyptian tale with hieroglyphics. It's a mysterious, oh it's a man who goes on a mysterious journey trying to find treasure. So it's really neat. And the cool thing is the illustrations are really wonderful. And it's a really nice story but the cool thing is it also tells the story in hieroglyphics. So you get a little bit of feel of it. So don't forget if you haven't signed up for summer reading go ahead and go to longbeach.beamstrat.org to sign up today. And don't forget our activity code for the week is okay. You'll have a good day and I'll see you next time. Have a good day.
