Pretty Paper Daffodils!

These Daffodils were so simple to make.  I think they would make great Mothers Day gifts!  I put the two flowers Addie made in a small, glass vase on our counter - they look adorable.  This is our 2nd springtime daffodil project this week.  We did both of the projects on rainy, dreary, cold days!  Hopefully, the weather will get brighter and warmer.

Paper Plate Sun!

The theme this week is the color yellow!

Project: Paper Plate Sun - Ty(4) and Addie(2) painted these paper plate suns!

I cut triangle's around the edge of each plate to make the suns rays. Then Ty and Addie painted the cut paper plates yellow. After they were dry, Ty and Addie glued on googly eyes and they each drew a mouth and a nose! Very simple and cute! Materials Needed: paper plate, scissors, yellow paint, paint brush, googly eyes, glue, black marker

Handprint Sunflower!

Project - Handprint Sunflower. Paint your child's hand yellow and press on white paper 4 times in a circular pattern ( you will have to re-paint the hand a couple of times). Draw a stem on green construction paper and have child cut it out. Glue the stem onto the white paper. Cut small black triangle out of black construction paper. Have child press the small triangle onto center of wet handprints (these will act as the seeds for the sunflower). Materials Needed: white paper, yellow paint, paint brush, black construction paper, green construction paper, pencil, scissors, glue stick
