Aren’t flowers pretty？ They are colorful and many of them smell almost as good as they look. But do you know flowers can do more than just look pretty and smell good？ Most flowers can be used in arts and crafts projects， while many others can be eaten and used to make food taste good. Some flowers are even used in some of the medicines we take to make us feel better when we are sick！

When you are sick， your parents take you to the doctor or get medicine from the store to help you get well. But when your grandparents or great-grandparents were little， they weren’t always able to go to the doctor. People who lived in the country didn’t have doctors， either. So what did they use for medicine？ Flowers， that’s it！

Many flowers are used to make medicine that can stop you from coughing， make your stomach feel better and even heal your skin when you get burned. But be noted： It is dangerous to use flowers for medicine unless you know how to do so.
