Science: Watching Daffodils Bloom

A part of the spring curriculum, I brought in some daffodil stalks for the children to explore and observe bloom. Over the course of a few days the stalks blossomed. Every day, I would point out the different stages of the daffodils and the children learned how to touch them gently as they bloomed.

I kept the flowers down low but still out of reach of the children for observation purposes and safety. Through out the day they were given plenty opportunities to help with changing the water and handling the daffodils.
