Flower People!!

We recently read a picture book that is a family favorite- Cinderlilly: A Floral Fairy Tale by David Ellwand. This book is a retelling of Cinderella using people made out of flower parts, and one reason it is a favorite is because we like to make our own flower people! The author of the book used a computer to create his pictures, but I think we had lots of more fun making ours with the real thing!

My daughter enjoyed picking the flowers, especially when I said she could pick any that she wanted, and not just the ones that were wilting.

The ones on red are my daughters and the ones on black are my sons.

And we are getting ready to plant in our yard!! YEAH!!
