Steps

  • Step 1

    On a pink construction paper sheet, trace a circle using the top rim of a large disposable cup.

  • Step 2

    Flip the cup over and use the bottom of the cup to trace a smaller circle in the middle of the larger one. Repeat 2–3 times.

  • Step 3

    Make a straight line through the middle of each circle.

  • Step 4

    Let your little artist color the outer rings of the circles with green crayon.

  • Step 5

    On each side of the straight line, draw an equal amount of seeds with paintbrush pens.

  • Step 6

    Repeat Step 5 for all circles, varying the amount of seeds between full circles.

  • Step 7

    Cut out circles with scissors, then cut in half along the center line.

  • Step 8

    Mix up cutouts and have your little artist match the pieces with the same number of seeds.
