My 4 year old daughter, Sycely, loves all things flowers so I thought taking her along to the Flower Festival downtown in Townsquare would be a fun Mommy Date for the two of us. We had a great time checking out all the gorgeous blooms and really enjoyed being surrounded by all the fabulous colors of summer. The Festival offered lots of activities and entertainment- informational booths, workshops by master gardeners, live music, flowers and plants for purchase and lots of local artisans displaying their amazing work.
Sycely enjoyed planting a Marigold, her favorite flower this summer, after decorating a cup planted for it at the children's planting station. Then we checked out the booths of art, listened to some tunes and picked out a sunflower for one of our front yard planter boxes. All in all we had a great time and thought the Flower Festival was a great family activity and a successful fundraiser for such a worthy cause. Anchorage (downtown in particular) is known for its beautiful flowers and I'm happy to have been part of helping keep our city alive with color.
