Art
- The child learned about colors and how different flowers and plants have different colors.
- The child learned about shapes and how different plants have different shapes, such as the round shape of a sunflower or the long shape of a carrot.
- The child learned about patterns by observing the patterns of leaves or petals on different plants.
One creative way for continued development in art related to gardening is to create a nature-inspired collage using materials found in the garden, such as leaves, flowers, or twigs. The child can arrange and glue these materials onto a piece of paper or cardboard to create a unique artwork.
