Using Different Plants as Paintbrushes
At The Global Child, they learned all about different kinds of plant life and they experimented with using different kinds of plants as paintbrushes! It was great fun touching and manipulating the plants as the kids became familiar with the different kinds and then tested them out as paintbrushes!
Studying the plants
Before using the plants as paintbrushes the kids examined them under microscopes and studied their shape, design, and features. It was noted how different plants had very different appearances and might paint on the sheets of paper quite differently! When the kids took the plants and used their leaves to paint they were quite impressed with the different results they would see as they painted! It was a stellar activity.
