How many fabulous flowers and leaves can you find? We found all sorts amazing plants just outside our door and on our daily walk! An egg carton or any other container will be great for collecting your little wonders. Ask your grownup to help you look online to learn your plants' names! Our favourite plant from our collection is in the lower left corner and it's called "Lipstick" because it looks like kissing lips! We would love to see what you find! Share your pics #GoldenToadKids If you would like more of a challenge, see if you can find a plant of every colour in the rainbow, as well as something black, white and brown!

Share your pics #GoldenToadKids If you have your own garden, this will be the time of year when you might find that you have a few extra plants and seeds. It's a shame to throw them away. Why not give them away to your neighbours. If you decide to make a little stand like ours, make sure that you practice safe handling! When touching anything you are giving away, make sure that you wear gloves and a face mask, or leave your items to sit without being touched for 10 days before setting outside your house. We found that we had lots of extra pumpkin plants and seeds as well as some extra rose cuttings. We labeled the plants and seeds and will set them outside our house this coming weekend for neighbours to collect. We would love to see pics of your plant stands or any plants that you are growing this spring! Post them #GoldenToadKids NOTE: Please practice social distancing with this activity! Many of these flowers might be growing just outside your house or flat! It's almost May and time to be on the look-out for May blooming flowers! How many can you find? If you don't live in the UK, you can visit PlantLife to learn about what is growing in your area, or google the name of your state/region + wildflowers.
