More Fun With Lentils!

I saw this on No Time For Flash Cards, and loved it!  We did this craft right away, and Jellybean had such a good time with it that we are definitely going to do it again!


Supplies Needed
Dried Lentils
Construction Paper Shapes
Glue
Scissors

1.  Cut out different shapes from Construction Paper.  We chose flowers.

2.  If your little one is old enough to use glue, have her squeeze glue onto the paper.  Jellybean wasn't quite ready for that, so I tried to squeeze different shapes onto the paper.

3.  Let your LO place the lentils on the glue.  I tried to have her do it one at a time for fine motor skill practice, but she had more fun just dumping them on :)

4.  Let them dry and them hang them up!  Make sure that when they are dry that you give them a shake over a bowl or back into your container, otherwise you will have loose lentils all over the place!
