Severed Flowers
Cut from colored cloth or paper a number of petals for forming wild roses, using pink material; marguerite daisies of white material and pansies of purple. Five petals for each rose, five for each pansy and ten for each daisy.
Have the children sit around a table. Provide each one with a sheet of plain paper, three pins having the heads covered with yellow tissue paper and mixed petals enough to make one of each kind of flower.
At a signal the children begin to make the flowers by sticking the pin through the point of the petals and pinning each flower to the sheet of paper.
A prize may be given to the child finishing the flowers first or the child making the best looking flowers.
