Tissue Paper Flowers

Another craft we did with our Daisies in the spring was tissue-paper flowers. We had each girl make one flower and twisted it onto a green pipe cleaner stem to take home.


The girls, of course, loved the flowers. They needed some help from leaders but it was a fun project overall.

Pipe Cleaner Turkeys

So I'm trying to go back and remember what crafts and other projects we did last year in Daisies...for Thanksgiving, we made these Pipe Cleaner Turkeys:


They turned out super-cute, but first grade girls needed a LOT of help with them. The pipe cleaner twisting was hard. If you're going to do it, I'd suggest having plenty of parent helpers on-hand. Also, plan to have all the felt cut ahead of time so that the girls are just assembling. They really were adorable, though -- we put ours on the table for Thanksgiving dinner.
