We have been collecting and looking at seeds. There are so many different kinds: big, small, colourful, prickly, shiny, soft, hard, long, tiny, rough and spiky. We found flower seed, vegetable seeds and tree seeds.
We especially liked the seeds that could fly through the air like helicopters. We had fun throwing them up in the air and watching them spin to the ground.

Thank you. We might try and make these and see how well they glide to the ground.
