Flowers!

April Showers Bring May Flowers! : )


We opened up our own florist / garden shop in dramatic play!

The children are invited to have their own flower shop fun in dramatic play! 


 We painted egg cartons to hold the flowers so that the children could pick their own to arrange in a vase to sell to the customers!


We planted our own flowers as well! 
We planted some in pots and others in bags between damp paper towels so that they could see how the seed sprouts right in front of their eyes. 


We discussed what plants need to grow and illustrated our own pictures of things that grow from seeds be it flowers, or vegetables or trees.



We then made still life paintings of daffodils.
