Shamrock Fun
This was definitely a project that was more about the process than the product.
I gave Hailey a shamrock shape and had her put glue all over it, however she wanted it.
Then we covered the glue with salt.
Then Hailey dipped a paint brush into green food coloring and touched it to the salt. The green spread to all the areas near by.
Then she took the bottle of food coloring and put drops onto the salt. It was really neat to watch it spread very quickly the areas around it.
The finished shamrock. I definitely want to try this again but with a variety of colors of food coloring, allowing the colors to run together and mix.
We also did this counting activity from Musings of Me– Hailey had to count and then put the clothespin on the correct number.
