Flamingoes: suncatchers





BUTTERFLY SUN CATCHERS

To welcome the beautiful sunshine, in the Art room the flamingoes made suncatchers. We first talked about what suncatchers were and what happens when the light passes through them. Then they were given templates of butterflies and flowers and they had to cut and glue crepe paper on them. They also decorated them with glitter.We displayed them on the windows of the five senses room and when the light passes through them, it creates a really interesting effect. It was a fun way to decorate and brighten up our windows.
