| Flower Power Now that we have learned
all of the parts of a flower, pretend that you have your own flower
garden. Knowing the different parts of the flower is
important so you can know how to take care of it and tell it apart from
the others. Pick a flower that you want to be in your
garden, draw it, color it, and label its parts. All
flowers look different so be creative!
