Affection Flowers

 

Materials:

  • Popsicle sticks
  • Green craft paint
  • E-Z felt (stiff felt) in a variety of colors
  • Tacky glue
  • Small plant pots and paper grass

 Steps:

  • Paint the Popsicle sticks green and allow to dry.
  • Cut heart shapes out of the E-Z felt. Glue them to each other in designs of your choice. Then glue them to the Popsicle sticks. Allow to dry.
  • Fill each pot with paper grass and arrange a “flower” in each. Place in nursery out of reach of baby.

Many thanks to FOM (“Friend of Macaroni”), Scholastic’s Parent & Child magazine for these great ideas.
