How to Make Cool Stuff
Well, earlier today we made an Indian boy out of paper. It would make sense that I would post an Indian girl next. If you thought that, you are absolutely right. Indians were a very important part of Thanksgiving happening at all. They taught the Pilgrims how to grow food…. before that the Pilgrims were starving to death. After the Indians taught the Pilgrims how to grow food we had an amazing harvest and that’s how Thanksgiving came about. So, let’s make our Indian Girl out of paper.
The Indians were an important part of the first Thanksgiving. After all, if it wasn’t for the Indians the Pilgrims wouldn’t have had such a wonderful Harvest back in 1621.

So, today I’m going to show you how to make an Indian Boy out of Paper.
