Arts and Crafts: Foam Flower Pots!


Weekly, we set time aside to do something fun with the kids! Last week we decided to dive into some arts and crafts fun. With some foam sheets, construction paper, plastic cups, and a little Google image inspiration, then our flower pot project came to life. The kids really enjoyed seeing each flower form.

We had to create the flower pots out of construction paper. We glue gunned all pieces to the plastic cup, and the girls practiced their cutting skills, by cutting out flower shapes, and turning them into puppets :) :)

Alouse and I precut the flowers so the girls could glue everything together, and voila, foam flower pots ready for display!
