PROFUMO DI NATALE

Ecco svelato il regalino per mamma e papà, che i miei piccolini hanno fatto per Natale.
Considerato il progetto di quest'anno (un anno da piccoli esploratori) abbiamo scoperto nuovi elementi della natura, come la cannella, i chiodi di garofano, le pigne, le arance, le bacche di rosa canina, i semi di ciliegia e l'anice stellato.
Per non parlare del profumo... quindi si è parlato dell'olfatto... insomma, è stato un giorno ricco di scoperte.
Questi sono gli ingredienti che abbiamo messo nel pot pourri.
1- pigne
2- anice stellato
3- bastoncini di cannella
4- fili dorati
5- bacche di rosa canina
6- pigne
7- noccioli di ciliegia
8- stelline e filetti di buccia di arance
9- porporina oro, stelline di legno, stelline dorate
10- chiodi di garofano
Fette di arance essiccate in forno.
Ho iniziato con una bella spremuta di arance e, con la buccia, abbiamo fatto delle stelline (con taglia biscotto) e dei bastoncini.
Ho consegnato ad ogni bimbo un secchiellino e un cucchiaio, dove hanno messo tutto quello che volevano... un po' come fare una pozione magica.
Al termine, qualche goccia di essenza agli agrumi.
Per confezionare il pot pourri ho preparato una striscia di cartoncino rosso e ho fustellato una stella.
Ho messo dentro a dei sacchetti trasparenti di cellophane il pot pourri e li ho ricoperti con la striscia rossa.
Tag bianca (scusate, le tag le ho fotografate storte) con scritta dorata e il regalino è pronto!
Buoni preparativi a tutte voi.
A presto
Maestra Valentina
