I designed every project so kids can do it themselves — no fancy supplies, just paper, scissors, and a little imagination.

📚 As an indie author, your pre-order genuinely helps me — it counts toward first-week sales, which is how new books get noticed. Thank you!
Leaf Sunflower Craft
What you need
- yellow leaves (or any other color and yellow paint)
- brown construction paper
- white school glue
- duct tape
- scissors
- green paper drinking straws
Cut two circles per sunflower from brown construction paper (we used duct tape for circle template).
If you didn’t find any leaves that are yellow, you can color them. Let them dry before continuing. 
Apply a generous amount of glue on the brown circle. Stick leaves onto it, all around.
Add a generous amount of glue on the first layer of leaves (over the brown circle area). Add another layer of leaves.
Add another generous amount of glue and stick on another brown circle. Press down for the glue to set.
Attach a green paper drinking straw with some duct tape. Leave a while for the white glue to dry completely (or somewhat). Your leaf sunflower craft is finished.
