Start with the Arts—Grow Your Flower Garden
with Brittany Reif-Wenner
A Start With the Arts offers pre-school children ages 3-5 years the opportunity to work with a teaching artist/educator to explore the art and culture through hands-on activities.
Author Eric Carle’s book, The Tiny Seed, inspires this garden project. Work with artist Brittany Reif-Wenner to design and create your own garden planter using a coffee can. Then plant the seeds from a garden grow kit included with your art materials. Place your planter in the sun, water the seedlings and count the days until your flower seeds sprout. Soon these seedlings will grow into beautiful flowers.

What better time to celebrate our flower pollinators than when our flowers from seeds will be growing stronger each day. Learn about who the pollinators are from the Rusty Patch bee to the Monarch butterfly and the important work they do. Then create your own wearable gardening hat decorated with paper and artificial flowers. Make sure to add a bee or two and a beautiful Monarch butterfly.
