Here's a little art project we did last week when the weather felt like fall...this week it feels like summer in the desert. :-(
My daughter watercolored the background, we added foodcoloring to some rice for grass, glued on cotton ball clouds, and glued on a variety of colored punched leaves. The kids really liked this craft. Today, we are going to do the sheep we found on Just Next Door.
I love all the blog homeschool resources that are out there! I just recently discovered Confessions of a Homeschooler, and it is amazing!! There is enough valuable resources on that one site to keep you busy for a long time. It is hard to believe the creativity and organization that one person can have! Check it out if you get a chance!

What a creative project! I think my son would probably be still too little to handle the rice, but I'll keep the project in mind for next fall!
Angelina,
You said it fine, and I'm glad you pointed it out! We all need reminders to think of more than ourselves. :-)
Oh how sweet! I love all the different mediums you used! Watercolours, the rice is awesome and cotton wool clouds and hole punch leaves... you must have had so much fun!!
Thank you for linking up to Kids Get Crafy!! Much appreciated!
