Flower Unit -- Hammering Flowers! Flower Window Decorations

When we were in Canberra we went to Floriade, a yearly
flower festival. DD decided that she wanted to do a flower
unit when we got home. Today was our first day of activities.
We collected flowers from our yard and from our neighbor's
beautiful garden (with permission, of course!) We used the
flowers to hammer them into cards. They turned out really
pretty and you could use this for a symmetry activity as well.
We also put flowers onto contact paper to make window decorations.

We also used some of the flowers to press them in books,
but we're waiting for those to dry before we do anything with them.
