To celebrate the first day of Spring, we decided to plant some flowers. My girls excitedly ran up and down the aisles of our local garden center smelling and eyeing the rainbow of colors until they found the perfect ones to bring home. After we got our flowers into the soil and gave them plenty to drink, I decided to follow up on the fun with a flower art invitation.

I set out some foam shape stickers in pretty Spring colors and invited them to create their own beautiful garden of flowers. I chose to have their art project done on card stock paper so that it would support the weight of the foam stickers once displayed. A thick construction paper would work well too.

Getting Started with Spring Flower Art Invitation
To get started, I took the opportunity to practice sorting by asking my preschooler to identify and sort the stickers by shape. She created piles of ovals, rectangles, circles, hearts, triangles, squares, and even raindrop shapes. This served as an excellent review as well as an organizational tool for the art project.
Once the girls were finished “planting” their flower shapes garden, we hung them up in our kitchen so that we would have beautiful Spring flowers to admire inside and outside.
