Hey Mums,
Welcome to our 'Free Fun Friday'.
Hope you pick up some great free fun ideas for the family. Today's 'Free Fun Friday' idea is flower collages. Hope you enjoy!
With all the beautiful nature available to us in our gardens and in the wild at the moment I decided to give flower collages a go. It went down great with my girls holding their attention and they had lots of fun. We got our baskets out and went collecting flowers and leaves. We went around our own garden and then down the road to see what the hedges could offer us. There were giggles and running, grabbing and throwing but by the time we got home we had lots of colourful flowers and leaves to create a great collage.
The girls decided to make a card for Granny and a mask for Grandad. I find if they are making something for someone and I make a big deal of delivering it in an envelop after it keeps them really focused. They love getting attention for their hard work.
All we needed besides the flowers was glue, cardboard and I bought blank face masks at Mr Price.
The girls loved creating their pieces for their grandparents and it was a lovely activity keeping them busy and entertained. The odd bug came out of the flowers which were investigated too!
I usually put on background music while they are partaking in arts and crafts it creates a nice atmosphere; the album that was on was 'Now Disney Princess'. Great album for any princesses in your life! To be honest I love it too;-)
Give it a go, post some pics if you try it! I would love to see them!
Last thing I just want to mention is this weekend's 'Crooms Party In The Park'
