How does your Garden Grow?
This is craft for everybody and kids really respond best when you get involved. Begin by challenging yourselves tocover the whole paper and if you can, leave it up for some time and add to it-it's a great exercise for kids to not necessarily think of art having to be finished or perfect.
What you’ll need:
A roll of paper, craft or white
scissors and glue stick
cupcake liners, plain or decorated
various coloured bits of paper-construction paper, leftover wrapping, magazines, etc
Paint-Watercolour or acrylic and small brush or corks for stamping
crayons
Either tape up your big sheet of paper on the wall or lay it out on the table. Cutor draw a few plant stems onto the paper to start. Begin adding leaves, dirt, blossoms and bugs in any media. The cupcake liners make great 3-D flowers. Keep adding until you are happy with the result.
