稚舍育儿 | 绘本《The Carrot Seed》Waiting for flowers to bloom

宝贝们，

你眼中的春天是什么样的呢？

让我们一起制作春天的花朵吧。

Make a watercolor flower

What You Need:

· Watercolor paper

· Watercolor paints

· Paintbrush

· Paper towels

· Scissors

· Glue

· Pom-poms in various colors

· Pencil

What You Do:

1. Have your child draw some large flower petals on the watercolor paper.

2. Next, cut out the petal and trace it seven times on the same sheet of watercolor paper so you have a total of eight petal shapes.

3. Paint some water on four of the petals, and blot two of the wet petals with a paper towel.

4. Now paint all the petals with watercolor paints, making each one a different color.

5. Encourage your child to decorate each petal with a unique pattern. Consider polka dots, diagonal stripes, triangles, squares and squiggles. Then allow the petals to dry completely.

6. Using four different colors, paint the remaining petals. Look how much more control you have over the paint! Try inventing a new pattern for each petal. Allow these petals to dry.

7. On the watercolor paper, draw a large circle that’s about 6 inches wide and cut it out to create the base of your flower.

8. Cut out all of the petals and arrange them on top of the circle base, so they are touching and evenly spaced.

9. Glue them in place on the circle and allow them to dry completely.

10. Have your child dip one pom-pom at a time in a small amount of white glue and place it in the center of the flower. She can use as many colors as she would like until it looks finished! 

你需要什么:

·Watercolor 纸

·Watercolor 油漆

·Paintbrush

·Paper 毛巾

·Scissors

·Glue

·Pom-poms 在 各种 各样 的 颜色

·Pencil

你该怎么做:

1.让你的孩子在水彩纸上画一些大花瓣。

2.接下来，剪下花瓣，在同一张水彩纸上描摹七次，这样你就有了八种花瓣的形状。

3.在四片花瓣上涂些水，用纸巾吸干两片湿花瓣。

4.现在用水彩颜料画所有的花瓣，使每个花瓣都有不同的颜色。

5.鼓励你的孩子用独特的图案装饰每一片花瓣。考虑波尔卡圆点、对角条纹、三角形、正方形和弯弯曲曲的图案。然后让花瓣完全干燥。

6.用四种不同的颜色，画出剩余的花瓣。看看你对颜料的控制力有多大!试着为每一片花瓣创造一种新的图案。让这些花瓣变干。

7.在水彩画纸上，画一个大约6英寸宽的大圆，然后把它剪下来，做成花朵的底部。

8.剪下所有的花瓣，把它们排列在圆圈底部的顶部，这样它们就会互相接触，并且间隔均匀。

9.把它们粘在圆圈上，让它们完全干燥。

10.让你的孩子用少量的白色胶水一次蘸一个pom pom球，然后把它放在花的中央。她可以使用任何她想要的颜色，直到它看起来完成!
