This art project connects the process of growing a flower to growing a friendship. Step one was to sit down with the kids and discuss the parallels. Bellow is the list we came up with:
- Both plants and friendships need: Love, Care, Time, Understanding, Patience, Light (metaphorically for friendships) , Energy, Giving.
We then painted our little pots. After this step was completed I had the kids choose their favorite adjective and find the word from the cut out letters I had prepared from old magazines. They then glued this word onto their pot.
The next step will be the soil and the seeds.
The final step will be talking about how to water and grow their flower.
Here is one of my favorites that the kids did:
