Each flower was made with 3-4 coffee filters, a paper cupcake liner, and the child's picture in the middle. The children used eyedroppers to drip colored water on the coffee filters. They then scrunched them up (when dry), glued the cupcake liner and picture in the middle, and added a stem and leaves.

These were our Spring hallway decorations. The butterflies were made with a pattern. The children squirted paint on one side and then folded the other side over and added a pipe cleaner body and antennae when dry. The flowers were simply trace and cut patterns.

The ladybugs were made with a 6" paper plate painted red with a die cut circle for the head. The children used a bingo dobber to make the spots and glued on wiggle eyes and pipe cleaner legs. The bees were also made from 6" paper plates painted yellow and black. Die cuts for the torso and head, wiggle eye, and pipe cleaner legs and antennae. We used laminate scraps for the wings.
