Daisy Gives a Paper Doll Garden Party

Nurse sitting on the garden bench with her knitting; she waits to serve tea to the children...

 

       Daisy, the little girl on the bench, is giving a party in her garden. The other children are her playmates, who must be suitably dressed. The garden is also included with the dolls, where the nurse is sitting. Cut out the children and their party clothes. Paste a piece of heavy cardboard on the back of the garden so that it will stand up. Also paste the clothes on the dolls or make little tags to temporarily attach them. Then arrange the children around the party table in the garden.

Daisy's friends come with several outfits each, a garden shovel, a dog,
 a bench, and many hats to keep the sun from their eyes!
