Ideas for Martin Luther King Jr Centerpieces

Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr Day by making handmade centerpieces for the celebration. There are many centerpieces which can be the focal point at the MLK day celebrations such as theme collages made from magazine cut outs. Martin Luther King Jr. famous I had a Dream speech is one of the most famous in American history. Have children make their own I Have A Dream speech collage. What do they wish to achieve in their lifetime? Have children cut out various pictures of what they would like to be when they grow up i.e. doctors, lawyers, oceanographers, professional athlete etc. ask children to not only use images to represent what they wish to become but also have them write a short speech explaining why. What major impact on society can they have by choosing their desired profession? Place the collage in a frame and store it in a save place. It should be interesting to take a look back at the collage in the next 10-15 years and see if what the child dreamed of then came to fruition years later.

A fun handmade centerpiece project for a Martin Luther King Jr Day is a macaroni project of the civil rights leader. Making macaroni can be done by glue macaroni on a piece of construction paper. Print out a picture of MLK Jr. and apply the macaroni over the picture. This will allow the children to use King’s face as a template to follow.
