Evaluation comments:
“Great quality art project! The butterflies are able to be displayed in the plastic holder after the dye is set and dry.”
“It was a very cute project! My daughter loved that she was able to see how her designs changed as the dye traveled to the top of the butterfly. It was a fun way to sneak a science lesson in while allowing her to have fun with the art aspect of the project.”
“My favorite part of this art project is that it opened the door for a science lesson without the pressure of feeling like we were in school. Once we talked about how the colors travel through the steams it allowed her to experiment with different designs so she could see how the traveling color affected her design! She had so much fun!”
“Loved it overall”
