No exact cutting, no small pieces, and the glue stick does the rest. For the others, you cut and they glue. ## Coffee filters, paint and a 3 year old in April Start with the coffee filter butterfly, flowers or earth. Washable markers, a spray bottle and a tray underneath. A three year old colors and sprays alone. Let the filter dry before you pinch it into the clothespin body. The fork painted chick and fork stamped tulips use the same fork and the same plate of paint. Do both in one sitting. A three year old stamps, you add the beak and the stems. The paper plate bunny, chick and frog need paint to dry first, so paint the plates in the morning and glue the faces on after lunch. A five year old can cut the ears and the curled tongue. Do the coffee filter earth and the handprint earth paper plate around April 22 for Earth Day. The bunny and chick crafts fit the week before Easter, and the umbrella fits any rainy morning.
