 Torn Paper Sunflower Collage Art

 

Sunflowers have to be one of the happiest looking flowers!

It’s amazing to see how tall they can grow and they are very easy to nurture and look after too.

Fun facts – the tallest sunflower is over 30ft tall and on a sunny day they track the sun as it moves through the sky!

If you’re looking for a way to bring some sunny sunflower joy into your children’s art and craft sessions, then why not give our sunflower collage art idea a go.

To recreate this beautiful Paper Sunflower Collage Art Project, you will need some brightly colored paper, glue.

Our homeschooling art class in full bloom!

 To prepare for this craft I drew an outline of a sunflower onto card, then cut up lots of tissue paper squares. This would be great fine motor skills practice for older children!

About

  I’m glad you’re here! Grab a cup of coffee (and your laminator!), sit back and enjoy some great activities, some life sharing, and a lot of fun-inspiring ideas.

What will you find on twolittlechirps

Tested and proven activities that are perfect for your kids.
Even activities that guest writers or creators have contributed is something I have tested myself.

No A.I. or Mass Produced Kids’ Activities

Why exactly does that matter?

If you have been on the internet at all lately, you are probably aware that A.I. is becoming a big thing. “Anyone” can create anything with A.I.

It creates images, writes books, pens research papers. It will even write a thank you card to your dear aunt Susie for the lovely Christmas present you received.

But beyond A.I. there are services where bloggers can purchase, pre-made, untested ‘educational activities’ and printables. A one-size-fits-all approach to resources with no thought to the developmental-appropriateness, underlying goals, specialized formatting that is needed when creating resources to help kids of all abilities.

It can be hard for new teachers or those who are moving to a new grade level to know what is truly the best resource for their unique situation.

And veteran teachers and therapists who are learning new techniques, modalities, and re-vamping old, outdated materials are looking through all the noise to find the activities that they know their kids need.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy your day!
