The Winter season is finally coming to a close and the trees and flowers are beginning to bloom. Join us in welcoming Spring with this adorable Painted Cherry Tree craft.
You will need:
Construction Paper (Pink, Brown)
Scissors
Glue or Tape
Paint (Pink, White, Tan)
Markers
Aluminum Foil
Instructions:
1.Start by having your students trace their hand and forearm onto their construction paper with a washable marker.
2. Have students practice their cutting skills by cutting the hand and forearm that they traced out.
3. Using a different color construction paper as a base, glue or tape the cut out onto the center of the page. The fingers will be pointing towards the top of the page. This creates the base of our tree!
4. Next, give students a piece of aluminum foil and have them crunch it up into a lose ball. This will act as your "paint brush" and add some texture to the paint.
5. Dab the paint colors onto the fingertips of the hand to create leaf filled branches of a colorful tree!
6. Don't forget to have students write their names so they can be sure to take their art piece home.
This art work was shared by one of own PureFUN! customers. We would love to see what you and your students have been creating in your classroom too!
