This how to paint art project is a very easy and fun way to create a field of wildflowers with watercolor paint. When I am working with the kindergarten through 2nd-grade students, I usually have the students paint two pictures. They love doing drip paintings. If you want the students to create detail, do a directive drawing style on top of the painting.
You get 5 pages of teaching tips, examples, and step-by-step instructions.
