Spring is the season when the world wakes up in color! Let’s go outside and see what kinds of wildflowers are blooming around you.

Go outside to a field, park, or path where wildflowers grow freely.

• Observe what you see.
• Walk slowly and look carefully at the ground and along the edges of trails.
• How many different kinds of wildflowers can you find? Are they blooming?
• What colors do you notice—pink, yellow, purple, white, or blue?
• Do some flowers stand tall while others stay close to the ground?
• Can you see pollen floating in the air or resting on the petals?
• Take out your Nature Journal or sketchbook and record your observations. Draw one of the wildflowers you discovered and label it with its color and shape. Use a nature book or the internet to find out what kind of wildflower it is and write its name beside your sketch.
  Include the date, time, and weather in your notes.
