Getting our Thumbs on the Pulse of Creativity

  The second Tuesday of the each month marks the monthly meeting for the Dirty Rascals Junior Master Gardener 4-H Club.  This one was one to put in print.  The group called their meeting to order and then shared all of their summer experiences.  Boy did this group have a lot of fun!

  When it came time for the activity Mrs. Tanya, the club leader worked with the group on really cool Butterfly facts.  Do you know if butterflies eat?  How fast do they fly?  Well our JMG's are just about experts.

  After learning the facts it was time to get down to the messy business of fun.  Using handkerchiefs, paint, fabric markers, and our thumbs we created our own, one of a kind bandannas.  Using different color paints. Used our thumbs to leave paint prints that would make bees, flowers, hearts, ants, ladybugs and other cool stuff.  Using the fabric markers. Filled in the details and no two bandannas were alike.  The club members did an awesome job!

  The club will meet September 10th at the 4-H office.  If you would like more information about tis or any other club please contact the 4-H Staff at (910) 671-3276.
