How to Talk About This Term with Young Children

Blooming is part of a plant’s life cycle. First, it starts as a seed, then sprouts, grows, flowers, and eventually dies. Children might be interested in knowing that flowers don’t all bloom the same way. Some flowers bloom at night or only once, while others bloom many times or take a long time to bloom.
