1. Flower Garland
Materials Needed:
Flower coloring pages String or ribbon Hole punch Safety scissors Glue or tape
Steps: Smart Tip: Use glitter glue or stickers to decorate the flowers before threading them onto the garland if your kids want them to sparkle even more. Lisa likes to make them look even fancier by adding little pearl stickers. Applying a flowery perfume to the garland will make it smell like a real garden.

2. DIY Flower Bookmarks
Materials Needed:
Flower coloring pages Cardstock or recycled cereal boxes Glue stick Laminating sheets (optional) Hole punch and ribbon
Steps: Pro Tip: If you don’t have laminating sheets, cover the bookmark with clear packing tape to make it more durable! You can also add a little handwritten quote on the back, like “Keep blooming!” For more fun bookmark craft ideas, check out Crayola’s DIY bookmarks.
3. Flower Collage Art
Materials Needed:
Flower coloring pages Large sheet of construction paper Glue stick Stickers, sequins, or buttons (optional)
Steps: Genius Hack: If your child loves a 3D effect, use foam tape to lift some flowers off the page! Lisa loved this idea, and Mike just wanted to stick as many buttons as possible. You can also use cotton balls for a fluffy cloud effect above the flowers.
4. Flower Sun Catchers
Materials Needed:
Flower coloring pages Wax paper Glue stick Scissors String or suction cups for hanging
Steps: Safety Tip: Supervise kids at all times when they are using scissors, especially Mike, who gets a little excited about cutting sometimes. It’s easier to work with wax paper sheets that have already been cut. Fun Fact: Lisa loved how her sun catcher made her room look magical when the sun hit it just right!
5. Personalized Flower Cards
Materials Needed:
