Flowers are a great way to inspire creativity and learning in kids so they make for great activities for toddlers and there’s loads here today to help inspire you too.

Flower Activities for Toddlers

Because I’m sharing quite a lot of ideas today I’ve broken it into two sections for you, flower crafts for toddlers and easy flower activities for toddlers.

Both sections have loads of great ideas that I’m certain you’ll love but hopefully this will make it slightly easier to navigate!

Mosaic Flowers

Paper mosaics are a great option if you have more than one child at home as they can be easily adapted for kids of different ages to make together.

Younger kids can sprinkle the bits of paper onto the flower outline while older kids will be able to cut out the mosaic shapes themselves and be able to make a bit more of a mosaic by spacing the pieces out.

Coffee Filter Flowers

The result of this flower craft looks really impressive but they’re actually made using process art so it’s super easy for toddlers and preschoolers.
