This week in my series of ABCs kids crafts featuring the Alphabet, we are doing an R is for Rose craft. These Alphabet Crafts For Kids are a fun way to introduce your child to the alphabet.
As an introduction to this craft, why not also read a fun book about the life cycle of flowers? Check out the The Reason for a Flower by Ruth Heller. The illustrations are beautiful and accurate and it is a wonderful introduction to the world of plants and science for little ones.
