Quick and Easy Poinsettia Craft for Kids

My son's kindergarten class made these ADORABLE poinsettias. I was there helping them put them together and they were a lot of fun and very easy to make... Check out how we did them below:
Materials:
Red, Green, and Yellow construction paper
The majority of the prep for this was cutting out all the paper pieces for a class of 20 kids... Each kid will need three red pieces, two green pieces, and a small yellow piece. The red and green pieces ended up 12" x 4.5".
Then, the kids each got a piece of cardstock with this general shape to it... they were then supposed to trace it onto all 5 of their pieces of paper and then cut them all out.
Then, they each cut out a small yellow circle to put on top.
The next step is inserting the brad fastener. First, put the middle of the yellow circle onto the brad fastener. Then, put the three red pieces, then finally, the two green pieces. Extend the back wings of the brad fasteners, then fan out the paper petals and leaves so they look like the picture. SO CUTE! SO EASY! Great for a classroom or just at home.
