With Spring finally gracing us with it's presence, I bet you find your little ones itching to get outside! Follow in the example of Preschool Playbook and take your class on a nature walk, paint a few colorful flowers and settle in to read Planting a Rainbow. What a perfect way to ring in the Spring season!

Green construction paper stems (pre-cut)

Provide each of your kiddos with a piece of white construction paper and have them glue on several green stems (as many flowers as they'd like to have - or as many as will fit across the page).
