Three Sunflower Activity Ideas from Little Pine Learners

Get a Sunflower! If kids can pick their own at a farm or market, that adds to the fun!

1. Have children use tweezers to take apart the sunflower, and get the seeds out.
2. Draw or print a sunflower template and have children use a paint brush to sweep the seeds to the center of the flower drawing.
3. When the exploration is done, use the seeds to create sunflower art by glueing them to the template or drawing!

Save the extra seeds to make a bird feeder or simply scatter for birds in your yard!
