This flower craft is inspired by Eric Carle's The Tiny Seed. It's a perfect way to celebrate spring, and it's also a great way to teach kids about the life cycle of a plant. All you need is some construction paper, scissors, glue, and markers. First, have your child cut out a small circle from the construction paper. This will be the center of the flower. Then, have them cut out five petals from another piece of construction paper. Glue the petals around the edge of the small circle. Finally, use the markers to add a face to the center of the flower.

Summary:


Carrots are one of the most popular vegetables, and they come in a variety of colors including orange, yellow, and white. They're tasty and nutritious, and they're also easy to grow. If you have a young child who is interested in where carrots come from, you can help them learn about the process with this simple craft. To make a paper plate carrot garden, you will need two paper plates, orange paint, green construction paper, scissors, and glue. First, paint both paper plates orange. Then cut out carrot tops from the green construction paper and glue them onto the plates. Finally, cut the plates in half to create eight carrot "plants." Your child can now use their imagination to pretend they are watering and caring for their very own carrot garden. This simple craft is a fun way to teach your child about where carrots come from and how they grow.

Summary:


We love our Do A Dot Markers and were excited to pull them out and make this flower craft for spring. Besides being mess free, dot markers also help kids develop hand-eye coordination as they direct their marker to the spot on their paper. Kids strengthen fine motor skills as they hold the dot markers and move their hands to apply the marker to the paper. For this flower craft, we started with a white piece of paper. We then added some green lines for the stems. Next, we added yellow dots for the center of our flowers. Finally, we added a few pink, purple, and blue dots around the outside of each flower. We had so much fun making these pretty flowers and can't wait to try more dot marker crafts in the future!
