Family Fun Garden craft

I saw this project in Family Fun. Thought I'd share...

	Smooth rocks in various shapes and sizes
	Waterproof acrylic paints and brushes
	Puffy paint (optional)
Time needed: Afternoon or Evening

1. Rinse the rocks to remove any dirt and let them dry. Apply a base coat of acrylic paint to the top and sides of each rock. We painted our rocks to match the colors of the vegetables themselves. 2. When the base coat is dry, your child can decorate the rocks with the name of the appropriate flower or vegetable. In addition to row markers, we also created some purely decorative rocks (for example, a "welcome to my garden" rock). For flourishes and lettering, we especially liked the look of puffy paint. When the paint is dry, place your rocks in the garden
