Challenge yourself!

Find a dandelion full of seeds. Dandelions are often called weeds, but they’re really wild flowers. They have evolved so that their seeds are spread by the wind, or by a young person blowing them all away. Give it a go!

You can also look at the Help with Challenges page to come up with your own air challenge.
