I love this time of year. The fresh green buds on the trees and the hopeful feeling of a new flower bud about to bloom. The fresh possibilities of the upcoming months. It’s a fresh start!
Flowers bring so much happiness with their beauty and smell. This year I’m hoping to have a garden of flowers to cut to fill vases upon vases throughout the summer! But also to make flowers crafts and do activities with them!
Yes, they can be so much more than just a flower in a vase.
Many of these flower crafts and activities are also a fantastic opportunity to talk to your child about the parts of a flower.
What is the stem? The petal? What is the stamen?
