There are sunflowers galore right now in the midwest. Just up the road from our home, a local farm planted three sunflower mazes this year, and the fields are gorgeous! It provides such a fun family adventure. And social media feeds are exploding with photos of the gorgeous flowers with their bright yellow blooms and beautiful maroon faces. This season was the inspiration for creating these sunflower activity pages for kids.
Did you know that there are more than 70 varieties of sunflowers? Or that young sunflowers are heliotropic? These facts and many more are included in this fun set of learning activities. You will also discover more of the beauty of the flower by exploring Vincent Van Gogh’s “Sunflowers” series. We’ve also included a mad lib, a word search and a tracing puzzle page to add a bit more fun into learning about this gorgeous, happy flower.
Starting your own sunflowers from seeds is another fun project. You can make these darling thumbprint flower pots as the first home for your seedlings to grow before transplanting them into the ground in the spring.
