You won't believe how quickly you can set up this activity! Here are the details!
- Cover a table (or floor) with some white paper. We like to use our big roll of paper.
- Tape the paper in place. We typically use painters tape.
- Draw some flower stems along the edge of the paper with markers.
- Put some colorful dot stickers, markers, and sparkly gems out on the table for kids to use.
