Cactus Name Craft Activity

This Cactus Name Craft is perfect for the month of May, Cinco De Mayo, and a wild west theme. It’s kid-friendly and easy prep for teachers too! Not only will it make a great bulletin board, but students will love making their very own cut and paste cactus. Great for name recognition too!
