Artsy Thursday!

 We concluded Week of the Young Child with Artsy Thursday! Since the kids did a bulk of the work yesterday at the forest by collecting a variety of nature materials, they had it pretty easy today to assemble a sun catcher. Using the flowers, leaves, and sticks they found yesterday, the kids took some time to place those onto some clear contact paper laid out on a frame. Some were more interested in the activity over some others, but overall it turned out quite lovely! 

We also let the butterflies go today! The video below is quite sweet as they try and navigate how to let them go appropriately as well as some talk about where they would live. This was such a fun little project that allowed the kids to take care of something and watch the magic of nature unfold before their eyes. 

Have a great weekend!
