If the weather is nice, go on a bug hunt with this printable from The Soccer Mom Blog. These are all insects that should be pretty easy for kids to find in the backyard or at the park. Want to learn more about bugs? Check out my post all about bees!

You can plant actual flowers, or you can play at planting flowers with this playdough activity from Fun with Mama. It uses the flower TOOB, which doesn’t seem to be available on Amazon, but these flowers are similar enough that you can still use her printables.

Practice tracing (words and images) and coloring pictures with these printables from Itsy Bitsy Fun. Images include a daisy, tulip, bouquet of flowers and a butterfly, each with the word written underneath to trace.

Speaking of flowers, Homeschool Giveaways has a printable parts of a flower worksheet (one with word back and one without), a build a flower page and a life cycle of a flower flip book printable. These would be great to add to a unit study on flowers or pollinators.
