The children will learn about the safe, sun-activated printing process for turning natural materials like leaves or flowers into silhouettes on fabric. The process involves coating fabric with a special solution that reacts to sunlight, turning deep blue where exposed and leaving the areas covered (blocked from the sun) white. 

We can't wait to see what the children create!
