Who can help but enjoy springtime flowers?! “April showers bring May flowers.” What a fun thought. And U.S. Mother’s Day during May brings even more thoughts of flowers. While flower activities are great any time during the spring or summer, May does seem like a natural time to focus on flowers.
Here are some Montessori-inspired printables and activities featuring flowers along with links to my other posts with flower activities.
