    2. Create Sturdy Outlines: Grab some thick cardboard and use it to trace the templates, creating reusable stencils for the flags.

    3. Trace and Cut: Now it’s time to trace the cardboard templates onto colored patterned paper. Distribute the paper and stencils among your group, and be sure everyone has scissors (staff supervision recommended for those using scissors). Carefully cut out the flag shapes from the patterned paper.

    4. Attach the Ribbon: We’ll be hanging our banners with ribbon! Take your ribbon and place it along the wider end of a flag. Fold over about a quarter inch of the flag fabric to create a pocket for the ribbon. Secure the folded edge with a small amount of glue or a stick adhesive.

    5. Express Gratitude: Time for the personal touch! We’ve included a white flag template for each participant. Use pens or markers to write heartfelt Thanksgiving messages on these white flags.

    6. Let’s Celebrate! Once everything is dry, it’s time to decorate! Hang your colorful pennant flags proudly around the room and admire everyone’s creative messages of gratitude.
