Saturday, March 20th was the first day of Spring! Although the weather may be a bit too brisk to fully enjoy the season, here is a fun craft you can do in preparation for the warm weather!
Collect a lot of rocks. Be sure there are different sizes and shapes. Start by choosing the rocks. Flat ones for designs and shapely ones for a pet rock! Paint the entire rock, top and bottom in one color. When the first coat of paint dries, paint on the details such as a lady bug, flowers or eyes and whiskers! Almost any type of acrylic paint will work. Try to find some thick paints so that the rock won't show through.
Kids can love to be creative and your rocks can become a door stop, book end, garden ornament, or paper weight. They make a great gift for grandparents too!
