Idea:

"Dandy" lions
Using yellow construction paper, have the children trace a lion shaped head. Then have them make stems and leaves. Cut out and then glue all to blue paper to resemble a dandelion. Use yellow yarn to make the mane on the flower's head.
Add face and details with crayons or markers. These should brighten up any room!

Idea:

When spring rolls around the kids at the preschool that i teach at love all the flowers that begin to appear, so I involved the flowers in a way so they could count at the same time. It works best with roses or any flower that has pedals. Give each children a flower and have them pick of the pedals and count them as they go, see how many they have after all the pedals have been picked off. I kids really enjoyed it!

idea

I teach Toddlers in a Therapeutic Child Treatment Center. When doing our Flowers unit in the spring, we "planted" fake flowers in our playground. Staff members put silk/plastic flowers by the stem in the sand and gravel. When the children went on the playground, they "picked" the flowers. They decided to re-plant the flowers and pick them again.
