What’s the Idea?
The flowers of springtime have arrived! Creating a cherry blossom tree is fun and easy and the end product can be used in so many different ways!
What’s the story
Springtime cherry blossoms always bring happiness to our household. Creating a cherry blossom tree is very straightforward and kids love to have a go.
There are many different ways to create your own tree, my daughter was keen to share with you how she enjoys making one using her own personal touches!
People should do this because…?
Its easy to create a beautiful painting, picture or drawing with minimal supplies.
The final creation can be used as the cover of card, a poster, a piece of art etc…
We have chosen to use sticks as the base as it gets the kids outside looking for suitable ‘branches’.
Using your or your children’s fingers can create a personal piece of art.
How do you do it?
For a demo on an easy way for kids to have a go, see the video below for instructions.
Stuff you may need
- Paper
- Crayons/colouring pencils/paint etc
- Some sticks from the garden
- Sticky glue (ex. hot glue gun)
