Family Fun Night Project

While volunteering at my son's school, I helped with a project they were doing on the parts of a flower. I want to share this project because it can help with fine motor skills.

The end result is a flower with leaves, roots, and lots of petals. I will share the process with pictures when we do this at home. Here are the basic supplies that will be needed. Cut a sheet of tissue paper in half. You will need four halves per flower, green pipe cleaners for the stem and leaves, and brown pipe cleaners for the roots.

The flower shown here is the one we completed at school. This can also be an educational opportunity to explain how flowers get water and grow!
