Flower Fun
With so many varieties of flowers to choose from, painting with flowers this time of year can be a lot of fun. However, you can choose to paint with fake flowers, they may not smell as nice, but they are sturdier. For this activity we chose the flowers we wanted to use together, Lilacs. Although we could have used any colors, I used this as an opportunity to compare paint colors to colors we see in our world. I made two shades of purple by adding water to one of the containers. This thinned out the paint, and provided two consistencies of paint to experiment with.

What a great idea! And the kids can pick out their own “flowers.”
