Flowers can be your answer to a fun summer holiday!
School is out and the summer holidays are here, but what to do with the kids? The summer holidays can be somewhat long, repetitive and boring for the children and even for you. Having to think of an activity to keep the kids entertained can be a difficult task. This is why Appleyard is here to give you the perfect list of activities.
We have searched high and low to find the best flower fun activities to entertain your children and even yourself!
FLOWER SHORTBREAD
Baking is a great way to get the kids involved and to keep them occupied. Using edible flowers in sweet treats will not only look amazing but will also taste delicious. Click here for the ingredients and instructions to bake lavender shortbread with fruits, flowers and herbs.
FLOWER TATTOO
Children love covering themselves in paint, it's fun and it allows your child to be creative. Flower tattoos can be done by anyone; you don’t have to be an artist to make them! They are really easy to make and are a lot less mess than the paint!
First of all you need to gain your flowers, whether you go for a walk and pick them yourself or run to your local shop to buy a bunch. You could even purchase some Appleyard Flowers with next day flower delivery to make your tattoos extra special!
Once the flowers are obtained you need to dry the flowers out using three simple steps:
1) Put two pieces of kitchen paper on a plate and put your flowers on top.
2) Â Then put another two pieces of kitchen paper on top of that, and another plate, so the flowers are sandwiched in the middle.
3) Put it in the microwave for around 30-40 seconds, and that's it!
Once the flowers are dried out, you can start applying them using some Vaseline – glue can be used to stick better but the Vaseline will be safer for the kiddies skin. Get creative and enjoy! Read more here.
