Remembrance day Poppy activity for toddlers

November 11 is Canada's remembrance day and Canadians wear Poppy on their left chest. My Toddlers watched a story about Remembrance day and saw people wear a poppy until the day. Teachers chose poppy printable templates for making toddler's own poppies and prepared various brushes and red paints. 

Children were excited to use various brushes and paints. Teachers prepared smocks for protecting their clothes. 

Children saw the poppy before and they knew how to paint the flower. They used the sponge brush very carefully. 

Some children used their fingers instead of brushes. >.<

They used their own small painting jars and it was easy to handle using paints. 

and we made the poppies!! 

In this activity, the children can develop their fine motor skill as they have to use their hands and fingers.
