Hand crafting with corn husks is a centuries old tradition throughout the Americas and wherever corn grows.  This may be one of the oldest forms of doll-making on our side of the world.  Create your own doll using corn husks and your tying and knotting skills!
 
Endless possibilities abound connecting this activity to academics or celebration -- Indigenous peoples, history, social sciences, plant and physical sciences, and of course making things with our hands in general, or for entertainment and playing.
