Nothing says "Spring" quite like the first blossoms on the trees.
Whether you have Spring outside or not, you can make beautiful and ever-changing blossoms inside.
I painted some branches. Photocopy paper and tempera paint.
I figured that they would look much more artistic if I put them in empty frames. (Also used to frame loose parts art.)
The "blossoms" are all dollar store buys - buttons, beads, heart table scatter, pom poms ...
Put all together, they are ready for Spring blossom artists.
I love seeing how the kids choose to create.
Some follow the lines of the branches.
Some use all one "type" of blossom. Or two.
One little fellow had a story about each blossom he put on a branch. Some blossoms were girls, some were boys, and they were all going somewhere together. It seemed quite complicated!!
All unique and all beautiful.
