Cherry Blossoms Painting Craft
At Little Seeds Children's Center, they created cherry blossoms as an art project! Cherry Blossom Flowers represent new growth after the long winter and are a symbol of prosperity for the Lunar New Year, which just occurred. The students were able to make the artwork with some unique, "brushes," that consisted of cotton balls and clothespins that were dipped in purple and pink paint. The resulting creations were gorgeous!
