Kinder Dandelion Painting


Kindergarten students created a painting with two different dandelions. First, we discussed what dandelions could look like, the colors, the smells and how you are able to blow the seeds off of the stem and make a wish.

We watched this short "music video" for the Five Iron Frenzy song "Dandelions" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmFyjfksXpw . We discussed how the song is about God's love, and a mother's love.

To create the paintings we used a few fun tools. The brown centers of the flowers were thumb prints, the fluffy white dandelion seed were made with an eraser stamp, the yellow/orange petals were made with a plastic fork. We used simple round bristle brushes for the stems, leaves and grass.
