ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY

When your flower pot is completely finished, you can use it for gardening pretend play with your “dirt” playdough and the fake flowers provided.

If you have play gardening tools (watering pail, shovel, etc.) you can incorporate those in your play as well!

For an added challenge for your child, you can take photos of the flowers in different arrangements. Then show your child the different photos, prompting them to match the configuration in each photo.
