The Language of Flowers

Flowers have been used to send coded messages in many parts of the world for centuries! In this program, you'll learn how to use the Language of Flowers to express feelings, ideas or intentions.

Tell someone you'd like to be their friend with a bouquet of yellow roses, but if you're feeling anger or resentment a bunch of thistle may be more appropriate. Once you've decided on what you want to say, use a variety of arts and craft supplies to paint, draw, or cut-and-paste your own floral coded message to take home!
