It is in remembrance of the capture of Mr Guy Fawkes, who on November 5th 1605, attempted to kill the then King of England, James I. He was part of a gang who had placed explosives underneath the Houses of Lords in London. Thankfully the gang were captured before they could detonate the explosives \u00a0and bonfires were lit across London to celebrate the stopping of this assassination attempt on the King.<\/p>\n<h2>Bonfire Night Activities for Kids:\u00a0Bubble Wrap Bonfire Pictures<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Supplies<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>This post contains affiliate links for your convenience<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>TP Rolls<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2elbk6J\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Bubble wrap<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Elastic bands<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2eGwQWE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Red and yellow paint<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Brown paper bag<\/li>\n<li>Black paper<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2ectVkO\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Paper plate<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2eGsFtM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Glue<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Preparation ahead of the activity<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To make the bubble wrap stamps &#8211; Attach a square of bubble wrap over the end of a TP Roll securing it with an elastic band.<\/li>\n<li>Squirt red and yellow paint onto a paper plate.<\/li>\n<li>Lay out sheets of black paper.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Invite your child to stamp the bubble wrap into the paint and then stamp it over the centre of the black paper.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/bonfire-night-activities-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3854\" src=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/bonfire-night-activities-1.jpg\" alt=\"bonfire night activities \" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/bonfire-night-activities-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/craftykidsathome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/bonfire-night-activities-1-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Encourage your child to mix the red and yellow paint together using their stamp and talk about what happens as they do this.
