I love dandelions and enjoy behaving like a child again when I blow the fuzzy seeds into the wind while “wishing.” Dandelions can also amuse and entertain children by magically morphing into curlicues. Strip the top off of a dandelion stem, split the stem into several pieces, drop into a basin of shallow water, and you will witness an odd occurrence; the dandelions will twist and curl into the most interesting shapes.
Try this with a child, or shhhhhh….I won’t tell if you try it on your own when no one is looking. 😀
I’d forgotten they did this. This post really made me smile.

Marilyn, my older grandsons play Little League, but they still are young enough to ask me to build “fairy houses” in the back yard with them. I have to remember to cherish every moment with them. 🙂
