Community & Art: Beetle Friendship Prints

For their Friendship Week, last week our PreK Beetles made special prints for guided discovery where they were paired up with a partner and had to each pick their favorite color and finger paint half a sheet of paper. They had to stay on their own side and carefully work next to a friend. After painting they folded the paper in half to make the most beautiful prints! Cooperation and art all in one!
