Join the KSE Wildflower Team

Spring flowers are in full bloom! And that includes wildflowers in our parks, neighborhoods, and even in our own backyards! Pinks, reds, and yellows pop up throughout forest floors, prairies, and parks.

A fun and effective way to get kids outside and interested in nature is to take some time to observe the wildflowers that bloom this time of year. KSE has a great activity set up for kids, families, and classrooms to Join the KSE Wildflower Team. It's easy!

	Take a hike in the woods or a meadow and take your camera or your sketch book along with you.
	Simply take photos or enjoy sketching the wildflower plant.
	Record the location where you found it and try to find it's name.To find out the name of the wildflower you have discovered, it isbest to "google" wildflowers by your state.  For example: Wildflowers in Minnesota
	Email photos or scanned colorful artwork to kse@kidsforsavingearth.org or snail mail to:
	37955 Bridge Road, North Branch, MN 55056
