This is a very easy activity for little ones and can produce stunning pieces of work. In the garden pick a selection of flowers, grasses and leaves (not poisonous ones of course). Then attach a length of double sided tape to a piece of coloured card and allow the children to arrange the flowers etc along the tape. They make lovely (if short lived) greetings cards and pictures. If the sticky tape has been completely covered you can press the finished picture to make it last longer.

The activity can be modified by using dried flowers, pot pourri, autumn seeds etc.
