There
are so many fun things kids can do to
explore their creativity and find joy
in simple activities. Here is a variation
on something that is fun and super easy
to put together. Materials:
Wooden Spoons
(new or used - it doesn't matter)
Paints & Brushes
Elmer's Glue
Small Paper Plates for Paint Palettes
Scissors (to be used with supervision)
Magazines with pictures of flowers
Old Cardboard or empty cereal boxes
Directions:
Set up
your work area with old newspapers and
lay out the supplies.
Give each
child a spoon and plate to put their
paints on.
Let the
kids look through the magazines to pick
a flower to cut out or they can draw
one.
Glue the
flower or drawing on to the cardboard
and let it dry.
The kids
can now paint their spoon. While the
paint is drying, get the kids outside
for a walk or get them moving for exercise.
When everything
is dry, assemble the flower and glue
to the spoon.
Fun Activity:
make a flower arrangement out of multiple
spoons.
