Today Bilal made this Paper Bag Tree. I found this on Pikadilly Charm . It looked very simple to make. Bilal loved twisting the brown paper bag to make the branches. When he was done he wanted to add some red leaves to his tree.
It's been a long time since I posted anything on this blog. I've had a few posts to do but just never got around to doing them. I had Hasan make these flowers for my mom on Mother's Day. I had taken Bilal to the library one day and they had a program going on. One of the crafts they were making were these flowers. It was hard to get Bilal interested in it but I knew it was something perfect for Hasan to make. They are very simple to make.
With spring here this is a great picture to make with your little one. I had Hasan make this picture but it was nowhere near spring when we made it. We used the method from the Cotton Ball Snowman to make the clouds. To make the petals on the flowers we used the method from the Scrunched Tissue Paper Flowers . Hasan used a dot marker to colour in the grass but you can use crayons or paint. I drew the picture with a pencil and had Hasan do the rest!
This is a very easy flower I had Hasan make. You take small squares of tissue paper, scrunch them up into a small ball and then glue them on a pre-cut shape. I had a bunch of streamers so I just cut small squares out of that. I found that to be much faster than cutting squares out of a big sheet of tissue paper. We also stuck some adhesive magnets on the so we could put them on the fridge.
