Stack at least four sheets of tissue paper. Cut a square of tissue
paper through all the layers. Fan fold the tissue paper, and wrap a
pipe cleaner around the center (this is the stem). Gently peel a
single layer of tissue paper up. Continue peeling the layers of
paper away from the fan-folded cluster until you have a poppy-shaped
flower.
Daffodils
Materials:
construction paper
scissors
cupcake liners
glue
Trace a five-pointed star outline on construction paper. Have your
youngster cut this out. Glue one cupcake liner to the center of the
construction paper (this forms the daffodil petals). Cut a straight, thin
length of green construction paper for the stem and glue onto back of the
petals.
Write out the identifying information for each item on an index card.
Depending upon the size of each specimen, the rocks can be glued to the
index card (white glue), and the cards can then be mounted on a sheet of
posterboard to create a permanent display for the rock/mineral collection.
