With so much rhetoric surrounding police officers, it would benefit us and them to focus on how all community helpers including police officers help us all, especially in protecting the community.

Paper bag puppets are a timeless craft your kids will enjoy without fail. These types of simple yet meaningful crafts combine art, scissor skills, and pretend play.
