'The Forgotten History of the Dandelion' Recipes, history & art printable!

The dandelion! Wow does this little plant have quite a story! This study takes a little different approach into looking at the dandelion. It's meant for the entire family or even just for you, the educator, parent, or individual, looking into gaining some wisdom into this magical flower.

We cover some fun history facts about this plant in America and we dive into the reason it has now been labeled nothing more than a "pesky weed". We learn why this flower is the official symbol of the military child. We dive into tips for foraging dandelion, we create tinctures, infusions, salads, jams, and more! Paint or color your very own dandelion with the included art printable, pick books and videos from the resources listed.

We hope you walk away from this little guide, ready to explore, forage, and blow dandelion seeds all over your lawn!
