Growing flowers

Today is the first day all of the kids have been here since "Spring" began! It is definitely NOT a spring type day. But we made it Spring inside the house.

This morning the kids all had a Spring Picnic. They laid out the blanket, and made themselves a picnic with the play food!



Then for Craft we made colorful growing flowers. We started by collecting things we needed. I drew out a flower, and flower pot. Then got all the supplies we needed, markers, stickers, glue, and popsicle sticks (which I glued and taped 2 together so they were longer).



I then let the kids color the flower and pot, and add some bug stickers




Then to the back, we added a strip of paper to hold the popsicle stick in but makes it so the kids can still make their flower "grow". And taped the top of the popsicle stick to the flower





Now they have a flower that can grow- they just have to move the popsicle stick up and down at the back!
