Dandelions are a type of plant that you might see in your yard, at the park, or even in the sidewalk cracks. They have bright yellow flowers that look like little suns.
Dandelions start as tiny seeds. These seeds are very light and fluffy, which makes them easy for the wind to carry away.
When a seed lands on the ground, it can grow into a new dandelion plant if it has enough sunlight, water, and good soil.The plant grows leaves first, which are long and jagged. These leaves help the plant get energy from the sun.
After the leaves grow, a long stem comes up with a bright yellow flower on top. This flower is very pretty and can attract bees and other insects. Bees and insects visit the flower to get nectar, and in the process, they help the flower make seeds.
After a few days, the yellow flower turns into a white, fluffy ball. This is called a "seed head." Each tiny white part of the seed head is a seed. When the wind blows or when you blow on it, the seeds fly away and can land in new places. This helps the dandelion spread and grow in many different areas.
Dandelions are not just pretty; they are also useful. They provide food for bees and other insects, and their leaves can be eaten in salads. In today's drawing tutorial, we are going to learn how to draw a dandelion, let's try it together!
