Did you know that a rose hides inside every head of celery? Find one with your child in this easy printing project.
- Materials
-
- head of celery
- kitchen knife (an adult's job)
- white card stock
- newspaper
- sponge brush
- red and green paint
- Instructions
-
-
First, pull a stalk from a head of celery and set it aside. Slice through the head a few inches from the base.* -
We used our celery stamp to decorate cards made from folded sheets of white card stock. Place the card on a folded newspaper. Have your child use a sponge brush to daub the cut surface of the celery with red paint, then press it onto the card.
-
Trim the end of the remaining celery stalk to give it a clean edge. Brush the end with green paint and stamp it onto the card twice for each leaf.
-
- Tips:
- * The closer to the base of the head of celery you cut, the closer together the rose's petals will be.
