I love spring! Its not too hot, or too cold. Its the time when everything comes to life again. Its a great season for spending time with the kids outdoors to explore, examine, run, plant the garden, look at the ants and other insects. A season full of educational possibilities!
Following our spring theme, here is another fun and colourful craft. This time we made a flower from felt.
What you'll need
Yellow felt
Felt of another colour for petals (we used pink and purple)
Green colour felt or paper
Glue
Thick piece of paper
Scissors
Emma chose the colours she wanted to use and of course she picked pink and purple, so here is how we did our flower.
Either let your child cut the felt into small pieces or do it yourself.
Draw a flower on a thicker piece of paper. Let your child add glue to the page, make sure its not too thick, so take off any excess glue with a brush.
Use glue to make a flower stalk and let your child glue the green felt or paper.
And voila! Your simple spring felt flower is finished! A fun craft done in no time to grace your spring wall!

Start with gluing the yellow middle and continue with the petals. If you choose two colours for your flower just let your child haphazardly add different colours to each petal.
