A very simple craft which can easily occupy your toddler (suitable for aged from 2.5 to 4) at least 30-45 minutes.
Get ready some colour papers and and unwanted piece of corrugated cardboard.
Ask your child to draw some big and small circles. Small circles for the petals while big circles act as bases of flowers.
Ask your child to cut out the circles (may not come out as round as it should be but it's fine). And some triangles (as leaves).
You can help to cut some stems and the grass.
Get your child to paste all the pieces together to form what it is shown in the picture.
Later, you can draw some insects as requested by your child (my son asked me to draw a mouse at the left corner - not sure why. You also will notice a ladybird and a butterfly). Get your child to colour the insects.
My son of 6 years old did not seem to be keen in doing this craft - he said it was very girlish. However, my 3.5 year old son enjoyed doing it. Therefore, I have suggested this craft probably suitable for both boys and girls not more than 4.
