We know that all mothers like flowers so instead of making a card for Mothers Day, we made a flower - but not just any flower. When these paper flowers are floated on water, they slowly open their petals to reveal a special Mothers Day message.
First we made practice ones with Room 2 and tested them in water. We discovered that paper is made of small fibres. When these absorb water, they swell up and the paper expands. This makes the creases flatten and the flower opens.
Then we made our Mothers Day flowers - if you look very carefully you can read our special messages before we folded their petals.
