An Activity for Preschoolers:
Children will love looking at the sun catchers as they hang in a window.
Before You Begin:
Gather paper plates, self-adhesive clear cover, flowers, leaves, sticks and additional
objects. Place the supplies on activity tables.
Activity Goals:
This activity will allow children to see the world through bright, beautiful colors.
Furthermore:
Since the children have made these in class, encourage them to create more sun catchers
at home.
Steps:
- Paint the rim of a paper plate and allow to dry. This will be the frame of the sun catcher.
- Cut out the center of the plate to create a window.
- Place a piece of self-adhesive clear cover on the back side of the plate so that the sticky
surface is exposed through the window. - Affix flowers, leaves, and sticks on the surface to create the sun catcher.
- Punch a hole at the top and yarn looped through for hanging.
