Sunflowers by Cathy Maurer

Sunflowers begin as small seeds.

The inside of the sunflower seed is called the kernel. The kernel can be eaten.

When the seed is planted, it will grow into a sunflower.

Once the blooms of the sunflower die, and the seeds have had time to dry, we can harvest the seeds.

We can plant the seeds that we have harvested, or we can roast them so that they can be eaten.

Sunflower kernels can be baked into bread.

Sunflower kernels can be made into a spread or butter like peanut butter.

Sunflower oil is used in cooking and is made by pressing the seeds.

Sunflowers are beautiful and very useful flowers.
