Growing Together: Open Forum

We have an opportunity to use our abundant flowers in the garden during lunchtime to give the kids something to do since we have likely eaten most of the shareable veggies.  Some are edible and some are not.    I want to keep it low env impact.  We tried making flower are by smashing flowers between papers a few weeks ago.  I think it was more fun to do the smashing and the outcome was hit or miss.

I might even just have them make little bouquets to take home somehow.  (wash milk cartons from lunch for vases is one idea.)

If you have any ideas, I'd love to hear!

We have Nasturtium, borage, cilantro, mustard, radish and kale that is bolting, a small white flower (forgot the name, similar to a daisy), a fair amount of clarkia, and sunflower petals perhaps. 

I will search the discussions too. The glass lantern idea is cool but we can't press the flowers in advance (we only open the garden once a week at lunchtime).
