CIRCLE ART
Here are some ideas using circles.  Some of them create circles and some of them use precut paper circles.


CIRCLE PRINTS

Pour a small amount of paint on a paper plate.
Collect several different round objects such as an empty yogurt container, a plastic cup, and a cardboard tube.
Give your child a large construction paper circle.
Show your child how to press the objects into the paint and then onto the paper circle to make circle prints.
 
  
CIRCLE FLOWERS

Give your child a sheet of paper with several flower stems drawn on it and a sheet of circle stickers. 
Help your child place the circle stickers over the top of each stem to make a flower.
