The children painted cups green, developing fine motor skills with paintbrushes. They then placed the eyes and legs onto the green base with varied approaches, with different eye and leg placements to create very different characters for their frogs, demonstrating individual creative expression. The children laughed and loved playing with their finished frogs, bouncing them up and down on the lilypads.
