Learning all about frogs has been so much fun! My kids have been totally intrigued by the frog life cycle and have spent a lot of time reading different frog facts.
One day while they were looking at the differences between frog feet we decided to turn it into an art project, so we made big frog foot prints! And it has turned out to be one of our favorite big art activities for children!
The kids each looked at photos of frogs in our frog life cycle books and drew a set of frog feet onto Styrofoam plates. They cut them out (I helped my 3 year old) and stapled a strip of construction paper to the top of them.
Then they slipped the frog feet onto their hands (our plates weren’t big enough to make foot size ones) and started painting!
All three of them had a blast printing with their frog feet! This big art project developed their gross motor skills and forced them to work together as a team. Plus, now we have some really cool frog themed wrapping paper!

This is AWESOME! I was just getting out paper to do a big art project tomorrow – but hadn’t decided what to do. Now I know. I love this.
You are so sweet! It really was a TON of fun!!! And super easy!
