Creative Kids Summer Class: Nature Art

On our last day of this first session, we explored the beauty of nature. We read The Curious Garden, a sweet story about taking care of plants and how they bring color and beauty to the world.

After the story, we went outside to explore the different plants in my yard. Plants come in all different colors and shapes- nature is very creative! We collected our favorite kinds of flowers and leaves to make a nature suncatcher so we could bring some of that beauty home with us.

Some kids added their own creativity to the plants by cutting them into different shapes with scissors or making a pattern with certain colors, while others carefully designed using the leaves and petals that they liked the best.

This project was a fun way to take a closer look at nature in a new way.
