Spring is here which means flowers are starting to grow and bloom. Sunshine absolutely loves plants, especially flowers.
In celebration of spring and flowers we've been enjoying these Flower Language Activities for Kids with Free Printables.
Sunshine absolutely LOVED these activities. They gave her such confidence in her language abilities while at the same time challenging her to take things to the next level.
I loved watching her learn and memorize vocabulary terms which she can then apply to the environment around her.
While at the store, Sunshine was able to identify every flower she had learned about. She was so proud!
The majority of the activities in this post were created using flower printables from the resource below.
Freebies in this post are designed to be used with the flower resource below, but can be used on their own.
The Flower Language and Math Bundle is designed for children in Montessori preschool and early elementary classrooms.
This resource helps children develop basic language and math concepts.
There are many printables included in this resource. Only a few are included in this post.
Let's take a closer look at these fabulous flower language activities!
Flower Language Activities for Kids with Free Printables
Flower Nomenclature Cards and Object Match Up
This flower nomenclature card activity paired with
flower figures was Sunshine's favorite flower themed activity on the shelf.
She chose this from her work shelves first every single day.
I love how organized Sunshine was with the activity because she enjoyed it so much.
One aspect of the cards that I love is that each flower is isolated. There are no distractions on each card to sidetrack her work.
Flower Identification Clip Cards
Once Sunshine felt comfortable with the names of each flower and could identify them without an image, she tried this activity.
Sunshine would read through the names of each flower on the bottom of the card and then mark her answer with a pink bead.
Flower Identification Syllable Counting Clip Cards
This activity helped Sunshine dive a little bit deeper in understanding flower vocabulary words. It also helped with her pronunciation of each flower throughout the time the work was on the shelf.
Sunshine would say the name of each flower slowly while clapping syllables and then mark her answer with a pink glass bead on the clip card.
She did extremely well except when faced with the word, "rose." She was not quite sure how to separate that word into syllables. This provided an opportunity for a great lesson on one syllable words.
Flower Identification Writing Strips
I am ecstatic that Sunshine is enjoying writing tasks again. It makes learning so much more fun. This activity was the second most used one on our shelves, being brought out on an almost daily basis.
Using the
erasable white board marker provided, Sunshine wrote the names of each flower on the lined strips, using the control provided.
Her writing has improved so much over the last six months, touching the lines where it's supposed to etc.

Sunshine is working on learning all about the noun family right now while developing vocabulary.
