Photosynthesis School Project

Photosynthesis Chart
Dear friends these days most of the crafty stuff  I do with my 7 year old don't get posted on the blog as taking photographs is often such a chore ![Do you ever feel that way?] She was so proud of this particular 3 D chart on photosynthesis that I did snap a couple of pics before it was rushed off to school!
Photosynthesis School Project
My little one is allowed to use all my craft supplies for school projects and she really went to town using  die cut alphabets and glittery leaves!The Carbon dioxide , Oxygen and food molecules are thermocol balls!

We made a tree trunk  by rolling thick brown chart paper and sticking just the edges on to our chart paper

Added a grassy border over the 3 D embossed tree trunk

I didnt have the heart to say no when she raided my stash of quilled flowers!

  1. Your little one is having such a great time with the learning process. How wonderful you let her use your crafting supplies. I'm sure it is so much more fun this way. Love that tree roots. :-)

  5. Arey Wah! She has gone to town with her chart!! I kinda have that problem with Dhruv's charts. I don't know how to keep it simple. Everything has to be die cut and cameo cut and embossed and really over the top... But since little Chittu did this all herself, it's a different matter! Fantastic stuff!!
