Plant a flower day - March 12th By : Emma Jane
Find some empty metal paint cans or other plant pot type receptacle . Allow children to paint and decorate as they wish by providing paints , crepe paper , glitter etc .
Add soil and plant flowers in them .
Create a flower shop role play area .
Add money to the area and a cash register along with paper , markers and clipboards . This allows children to practice literacy and maths skills by writing prices and words on receipts . There is no need to tell them to do this , just by adding these resources , children will come up with such ideas on their own .
