Celebrate the season of the bull with this nature collage for kids!
Ah, Taurus. The earthy zodiac sign ruling the months of April and May. What better way to celebrate this bit of the year with a nature bull collage?
We started this lovely forest-school inspired craft with a nature walk, collecting flowers and leaves along the way. Then we returned home to collage these natural findings onto the outline of a bull’s head.
The result was a boho-ish beautiful arrangement of seasonal plants.
Here’s how you can make this nature collage with your own kids – along with a free printable to use for the bull outline.
Supplies:
- Bull outline worksheet (get your free printable here)
- Botanical findings from a nature walk
- Scissors
- Glue
- Placemat (optional, but recommended)
Directions:
- Go for a nature walk. Collect sticks, leaves, bark, and flowers to use for your collage.
- Arrange your botanical findings onto your bull worksheet, using scissors as needed to alter shapes and lengths of items.
- Glue your objects in place to complete your nature bull collage!
