A sure sign of spring is the blossom of pussy willows.Today's art project and story was all about pussy willows.
I first looked up an easy to follow story I could read to the children along with some facts about the tree.
After answering questions about the story, I asked questions such as,
"What woke the pussy willow up?"
To begin our art project we gathered a variety of twigs from the front yard. After washing and allowing them to dry, I hot glued them to blue construction paper.
Once that was complete, I cut the ends off Q-tips and handed the children glue sticks.
We studied the original pussy willow image I printed and discussed where are blossoms would go.
This project is fun for all ages!
