Let's make it happen

  1. Look for flowers through a window, on a supervised walk, or in a picture.
  2. Choose a small group and point to each flower while counting aloud.
  3. Find another group and notice whether it has more or fewer flowers.

Adult chooses a safe route or viewing place; observe plants without picking or tasting them.
