00:00:04,339 --> 00:00:13,759
Man, this hair is getting so long. Oh, hi. How are you guys? Sorry, I didn't see you there.

2
00:00:14,820 --> 00:00:23,239
I hope you're doing well. We can go for a walk now because it's May. You know what I think about

3
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:35,259
when I think of May? Flowers. April showers bring May flowers, and I love to see all the different

4
00:00:35,259 --> 00:00:49,979
flowers bloom. Do you know what bloom means? Yes, bloom is when a flower opens and shows us all the

5
00:00:49,979 --> 00:00:57,840
different beautiful colors. Now today I would like to show you how to make your

6
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:04,980
very own blooming flower with a very special surprise at the end. So come on

7
00:01:04,980 --> 00:01:15,450
I'll show you how. So to make the blooming flowers we need a piece of

8
00:01:15,450 --> 00:01:29,340
paper, a pen, or a pencil, colored pencils, or you can use markers if you'd like. We

9
00:01:29,340 --> 00:01:38,900
also need scissors. If you can't cut, please ask your mom or dad. We also need

10
00:01:38,900 --> 00:01:53,060
two round items to trace. One small item that's round and one bigger item that's

11
00:01:53,060 --> 00:02:05,959
round. This will be perfect. We also need a round plate. This is for the very

12
00:02:05,959 --> 00:02:15,379
special part. It's how the flower opens. Now, step number one is to trace the

13
00:02:15,379 --> 00:02:28,689
large circle on the piece of paper. All right. Second step is to trace the small

14
00:02:28,689 --> 00:02:41,879
round object on the piece of paper. Perfect. Now, we will draw a petal in

15
00:02:41,879 --> 00:02:53,639
between the small circle and the big circle. Here, I'll show you. Here, one petal.

16
00:02:53,639 --> 00:03:11,409
Now, draw another one. Excellent. Now, keep drawing until the circle is full. Nice.

17
00:03:12,169 --> 00:03:18,590
Now, you want to use your favorite colors to color in the flower.

18
00:03:20,409 --> 00:03:27,469
Today, I've used purple and blue. After coloring.

19
00:03:27,469 --> 00:03:38,469
Now, the next step is to use your scissors and cut out the flower.

20
00:03:38,469 --> 00:03:50,960
I also wanted to tell you, if you don't want to make a flower, you can also make different shapes in the circles as well.

21
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:56,960
But, now you'll want to cut them out so we can watch them bloom.

22
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:02,530
Now, I have cut out the flower.

23
00:04:02,530 --> 00:04:09,530
So, the next step is to fold the petals into the center.

24
00:04:09,530 --> 00:04:17,529
One, two, three, four, five, and six.

25
00:04:17,529 --> 00:04:22,529
Now, maybe your flower has ten petals, or maybe it has three.

26
00:04:23,149 --> 00:04:29,189
All flowers are different, and all flowers are different sizes and different colors.

27
00:04:29,189 --> 00:04:34,569
So, you can decide what size and what colors to make.

28
00:04:34,970 --> 00:04:39,949
So, come on, let's go outside so we can see how the flowers open up.

29
00:04:40,230 --> 00:04:40,990
Let's go.

30
00:04:41,649 --> 00:04:50,149
Now, we take the plate and put it on a table or on the floor, and we add a little bit of water to cover the bottom.

31
00:04:50,149 --> 00:04:59,050
now we can take the folded flowers and throw them in the water and slowly watch them bloom

32
00:04:59,050 --> 00:05:09,939
and open up in front of our eyes once you've enjoyed watching the flowers bloom feel free

33
00:05:09,939 --> 00:05:17,540
to set them aside and allow them to dry you can fold them and use them again now be careful taking

34
00:05:17,540 --> 00:05:25,079
them out of the water and don't do what I did. It's important to be very careful. The ideas are

35
00:05:25,079 --> 00:05:32,720
limitless as to what you can do and design on your flowers. I even wrote a message on my flower

36
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:48,980
for you guys. Well, it was nice talking to everybody and I had a lot of fun showing you

37
00:05:48,980 --> 00:05:55,899
all how to make the new blooming flowers. I can't wait to see the new creations you guys can come up

38
00:05:55,899 --> 00:05:59,540
with at your house with your family and friends.
