Percy Jackson - Camp half-blood beads craft

A fun craft to make the beads for the campers of the demigod camp.
You will need 4 wooden, square beads (only 4 because in the titans curse, it was in winter) to make the craft,  paint, a paintbrush and a paper clip.
With the paperclip, undo it so it's a a long wire. Now, since its very small pointed at the end, it will be easier to paint of a small bead. On the beads, you paint one picture for bead. The paintbrush is for when these are the pictures you paint: a green trident with a black back-round, the golden fleece hanging from Thalia's pine tree, a labyrinth, and the empire state building. Now let them dry, then string them on a necklace.

Read it - Percy Jackson Series

This series is about a young demigod (half greek god, half mortel) named Percy who has to save camp half-blood and stop evil titan lord Kronos from taking over.

Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban- Marauders map

Make your own Marauders map from Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban! Here is a link, it will show you how to fold the map, and a printable map at the bottom: http://www.britta.com/hogwarts/Year6/prep/map/MapWithInstructions.pdf
and print then fold the map! (I didn't draw the map, i just found this on the internet.)
(Sorry there is no pictures, i forgot the maps at my house and I am somewhere else right now, but i'll try to get some pictures in soon.)
Here are the instructions to stain the map:
First you get tea bags, (orange tea is good, because it is easier to stain with) you get them wet in boiling water, the you squeeze them out so you won't get your map totally drenched in water. then, start dabbing the tea bag all over the map, until it's all brownish to look like old paper (You may need a few tea bags, because when I did it, the tea bags kept ripping and the fell apart, so you will most likely end up using 2-5). After you stain it,  Then you let it dry, because the tea bags usually get the map a little wet. After it's dry, you need a lighter. A parent will light the a corner or side of it, and you quickly dab it with a tea bag. Repeat this. it will make the edges look very old.

Read it - Harry Potter Series
