DIY Seed Bombs - ** Make sure that if you do this, you use wildflowers that are native to your area, some wildflowers that aren't native can become invasive and take over native species. :)

I recommend making sure you aren't cutting down anything endangered in your area as well as making sure you're not cutting anything in a protected area like a state park, etc. Only trim what is yours and plentiful.
As always, if you do any of these crafts or activities, make sure you use the hashtag #LearningFunWithLaura so I can check it out!
