Making Basketball Jerseys

All of the kids at 808-812 love basketball, so last week we decided to do a craft project that combined basketball with creativity: making basketball jerseys! First, Molly cut out the basic jersey shape, and from there the kids were allowed to do whatever they wanted to them: add paint, numbers, shapes, and more.

The kids then laid their jerseys out to dry, and after that, we made a nameplate for each one and hung them on one of the Activity Room bulletin boards. The kids had a blast making them, and they came out great!
