Discover the remarkable journey as some flowers become fruit.

Join Odysmir on a brand-new adventure as you uncover how some pollinated flowers go on to become fruits. Follow the hidden journey taking place inside the flower, discover how seeds begin to form and explore how some of the familiar foods in our kitchens began with a bloom.

Piece together Odysmir's muddled observations in The Journey of a Bloom, become a Kitchen Botanist as you investigate real fruits and their seeds, then create your own before and after botanical artwork showing a flower and the fruit it becomes.

Finally, take your discoveries into the kitchen with the From Bloom to Bake Empowered Learning Challenge, using fruit to create something delicious of your own.

Perfect for home educators, primary school learners and curious young explorers, this printable adventure combines scientific discovery, hands-on investigation, creativity and everyday learning to help children see familiar foods in a completely new way.
