What if instead of using glue you tried using flour and water!?

To experiment with different textures and materials instead of the regular glue.

MA Guidelines/Standards:

Materials:
Flour
Water
Paint brush
Colored construction paper
Assorted flowers found outside

Activity (Procedure):
To make glue from flour and water, add about two Tablespoons into a jar and slowly add water until you have a paste like consistency – needs to be thick!
Brush the “glue” onto the spots where you would like to stick flowers or clover the paper with glue and stick flowers everywhere!!


Activity Wrap Up:
  • display children’s artwork at their eye level and encourage them to revisit their own and other children’s creations.

How do I know what my child is learning? (Assessment)
  • help children to formulate questions and plan in-depth investigations on topics of their own interest. 

How can you extend this activity? (Modifications)
  • use their senses to explore their environment (e.g. textures; sounds; tastes; mixing materials; cooking, etc.).

Helpful Hints: (Pitfalls & Solutions)
This is a great activity that can be done almost anywhere there is flour!! It is not about the final masterpiece, rather the process of collecting flowers, sorting them out, and sticking them onto paper.
