Fun Flower Art

This is a fun art project that I have been letting my Kinder kids do this week.  I posted about using old warming trays last summer.  It is great fun for the kids to watch the crayon melt on their papers!

They have turned out so cute!  I have also found that some of my Kinder kids are very artistic.  I had one little girl shade with a white crayon, it turned out so neat looking!

First of all the kids colored their flower picture using the warming tray.  After letting the crayon dry for a few minutes, I had them use watercolors to paint the background blue.  FYI— I would definitely use construction paper if possible.  The crayon can leave a waxy residue on the warming tray. 

Here are a few examples:

Sew Stylish Boutique—Headband Review

Rose and Heather over at Sew Stylish Boutique are creating some pretty cool stuff!  They were looking for some bloggers to review their new headband idea!  (Which I might add…is such a GREAT idea!)

I was super excited when I received my little box!  Basically, they have used a thin wire as the headband part.  Unlike traditional headbands, this one does not pinch or poke the sides of your head!  Nope…Not once did I feel like I was wearing a headband!

Most of you know that I am a Kindergarten teacher.  This year I have 12 girls and 6 boys.  I had several of my girls comment that my headband was cute!  Not only did I get numerous comments from my kinder kids; there were several teachers and interns that raved about it!

I would definitely go check out their Etsy shop!  These headbands would make great Christmas gifts and stocking stuffers!

Here is a pic. of the cute headband they sent me!  I absolutely LOVE IT!

  

Here are a few of my favs from their Etsy shop!  Of course, I could have listed so MANY more!

Hope everyone can stop by and check them out!
