Mommy and Me Shamrocks

Wednesday's Mommy and Me class at Exton CCAA was all about getting ready for spring! We read "Spring things" by Bob Raczka ; illustrated by Judy Stead. Our craft was a shamrock. To make the shamrock we recycled a tp roll and magazine pages. First we cut the tp roll into 4 equal rings. 3 of the rings we covered totally with magazine cuttings that were mostly green with glue. The last ring we mushed and wrapped the magazine cuttings totally around it for the stem so it looked like a rectangle. After we had all the tp rings covered, we shaped them into hearts and a stem finally hot gluing them together to look like our photo. Lots of fun! Check out the example and make one too.
