This is an easy craft to make for Yom Teruah! Since this Biblical holiday is also known as the Feast of Trumpets and Day of Sounding and there's much emphasis on worshipping YHWH with a joyful noise, why not make some noisemakers for kids to have fun with?
What you'll need:
Paper plates
Dry beans or something similar
Stapler
Happy Yom Teruah and Make a joyful noise printables - totally optional, you can always just let kids decorate
Markers
Glue
Any other decorations you might want
Step 1: Take two paper plates and add a handful of dry beans to one. You could also use something like pop tabs or wooden beads, whatever you have on hand should work just fine.
Step 2: Place the second paper plate on top of the first, so that the bottom sides are both facing out. Staple around the entire thing.
Step 3: decorate! If you're using the printables, you can cut those out and glue or tape them to your noisemaker. Color them in if you wish. Otherwise you can write your own verse or saying, color, add glitter, and attach streamers to your heart's content.
There you have it. This is not a complicated craft at all! But be warned these are plenty loud. Toss in a handful of cotton balls with the dry beans to mitigate the noise a bit if you'd like. Otherwise have kids play outside with these or just welcome the noise!
Have a very blessed Feast of Trumpets!
