“Because they were roses and I was just a dandelion.”
Spring is officially upon us and the dandelion is back! Here is a quick and inexpensive art activity that your little learners will enjoy.
You will need~
• dandelions
• clothes pegs * (to attach to the dandelion stem)
• white paper
• yellow tempera paint
• paper plate to squirt some yellow paint onto
Attach a clothes peg to the stem of a dandelion. Dip into the yellow paint. Press the dandelion head onto the paper. Let dry!
Extension Activity~
Once the dandelion print is dry, the child can draw green stems to the flower prints.
This is a very simple yet effective activity and the children are delighted to “paint” with dandelions!
Make a wish!
