Spring flowers are in bloom and I love how pretty they are. We made some fun Paper Plate Flower Wreaths to hang inside our house.<\/p>\n

\"Paper<\/a>

Since pollen is a big issue at our house we do lots of flower activities that we can have inside. I love how flexible you can be with flower activities. This activity could be adapted to be used with foam flowers<\/a>\"\" or felt flowers<\/a>\"\".<\/p>\n

We read the book The Reason for a Flower: A Book About Flowers, Pollen, and Seeds (Explore!)<\/a>\"\" to go with our activity.<\/p>\n

What you need: paper plate, flower (got ours in the dollar section at Target), glue, glitter glue, green construction paper and foam brush. <\/p>\n

\"Paper<\/a>\n<\/div>\n

First we applied the glue to the paper plate. They used foam brushes to apply the glue.<\/p>\n

Next the applied the torn green construction paper. The girls helped me tear up the paper.<\/p>\n

Then they applied their flowers all over the wreaths. The girls took different approach to putting the flowers on. My youngest put them all over and my middle made a pattern with the flowers.<\/p>\n

\"Paper<\/a>\n<\/div>\n

Then each of them had their own ideas of what they wanted to do with the glitter glue.<\/p>\n

This was a fun project and we loved it. Plus a great decoration to my house.<\/p>\n
