Flower pot painting

My boys both recieved pepper plants at our county fair so we needed to plant them. I gave them each little flower pots so they could plant their own plants.





The boys painting their flower pots
Our art box contained: paint, paint brushes, cups for water, paper towels, newspaper, baby wipes (for messes).

Finished art
The green & blue flower pot is my preschoolers/ the orange & white flower pot is my toddlers.

    What a fun way to spend some time outdoors! Their flower pots turned out great and it looks like they were having a good time. :) And how neat that they each have a little pepper plant to take care of!

    I love the idea of having them paint flower pots! They turned out great. I will have to remember this project come Spring and have Selena decorate some pots for our garden.
