    The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles but to irrigate deserts.

     

    - C.S. Lewis

     

    Materials:

    • paper tube (paper towel size)

    • acrylic or tempera paint

    • glue

    • paint palette

    • paint brush

    • water cup

    • colored paper

    • scissors

     
     

    Cut two cactus "arms" out of the back of your paper tube. Attach one to each side of your cactus with glue.

     
     

    Mix a bright desert palette and begin to paint your cactus. When your first layer dries you can add your stripes in a contrasting color or a darker shade of green. Cut simple spiky flower shapes out of recycled paintings or brightly colored paper and add them to the top of each of your cactus arms with glue.

     
     

    What's better than 1 cactus? 2!

     
     

    Why stop at 2? The more the merrier! After you make some cacti maybe you want to add a few paper tube desert blooms to the party?
