Green Salad Craft

Our final activity for our "Fruits & Vegetables" week was this fun craft!

LB likes salad, but he usually doesn't like a whole lot of vegetables in it.

So this was a fun way to show him how pretty & colorful a salad can look when there are lots of veggies in it!

Supplies:

• Construction paper - Green, white, yellow, orange, red, etc.
• 1 piece of white cardstock
• Marker
• Glue

Prep Work:

• Using different colors of paper, cut out small vegetable shapes. Here are some ideas:
• orange - carrots
• yellow - onions or banana peppers
• green - celery
• red - tomatoes or red peppers
• white - mushrooms or onions 

• Draw a plate shape on the white cardstock and glue it onto another piece of construction paper:

Craft Time!

• Hand the green paper to your child and have them rip it! The ripped pieces will be the lettuce:

•  Next, give them the glue and have them glue the pieces onto the plate shape:

• Then place dots of glue all over the lettuce and have them put the vegetable pieces on.
• Lastly, give them the glue and let them just squirt it all over the top. This is the salad dressing! :)

HAVE FUN!
