Xo Playtime: Flowers

We needed to get out of the house on Friday. We had been cooped up for weeks on quarantine. And the occasional walks and errands help us SO much.

On this walk, we had a purpose from our #xoplaytime plan. For MANY of our activities this week we need flowers. Flowers to dissect, use creatively and study. We are doing other growing activities, but to start off the week right we needed a massive pile of flowers to use.

So we set out on a hunt for dandelions in our Easter baskets.

Watch the video below for the fun, free activity you can do at home with your kids!

Xo Playtime is a series of activities created around a new theme every time to promote new play, new interests, and new challenges.

These curriculum packs include play-based learning that is engaging and highly educational. Included in each plan are evidence-based behavior support strategies and action steps, with a renewed focus on emotional development.

This flower theme lesson plan has so many amazing science projects. Flowers and gardening don't automatically trigger "science" ideas, but I kid you not... this one is SO fun. You can purchase the rest of the plan a la carte on xolaurenpace.com/xoplaytime
