It was interesting to learn about the May Day flowers.
It is nice that the flowers are a different color each year.

The Queen thanked both Albin and Malin for being good role models and commitment to those who are struggling.
Albin Junehammar describes the meeting with Queen Silvia very nice.
- It felt exciting and you felt that it is an honor to have been selected to receive to go there, he says.
After meeting with the Queen, they got to walk around the Palace to sell Mayflowers to those who work there.
- The queen picked out what she wanted to buy and her lady in waiting paid, Albin notes.
Malin Ohlsson thought at first that it was not true when she found out that she would have to go up to the Royal Court.
- It's a very big deal to get to do this. It felt great to meet her, she says.

The Queen is really busy this fall, and has not been relaxing since she got back from the state visit in Germany. And I have to say that she looks very good in that suit, perfect for an autumn engagement.

Svensk Damtidning tells, that queen Silvia bought 14 Mayflower pins.
- I need one for Estelle and one for Oscar, one for Leonore, one for Nicolas and one for little Adrienne. She is very small, but she can wear it on her hat. Then we have Alexander and little Gabriel.
- And then I take an adhesive to the king ... They are very good, you can have them at the car and on the bike.
14 Mayflower pins in all, and when the Queen had shopped, her lady-in-waiting Harriet Bredelius came to pay.
Then it was time for the queen to say hello, but before she went to her office together with her secretary Sigrun, she smiled warmly at Alice and Youssef and said:
- It's so nice that you as a child help other children. Now I think you should go around the whole Palace and sell Mayflower pins to everyone who works here!

For the fourth consecutive year, the schoolchildren of Adolf Fredrik's music classes had sold most of Mayflowers.
On Tuesday they received the diploma of Queen Silvia at the Palace.
A total of SEK 311 160 had school children at Adolf Fredrik gathered to other children in need. Karin Ursing Rask, teacher and responsible for selling the Mayflower at school, believes that the children are well-acquainted with the purpose of the May Flower.
- That's what makes sense, she says.
The children's meeting with Queen Silvia became very successful.
- The fun of being at the Palace is that the children really must be in focus, even though the researchers who have received money through Mayflower are also in place and tell about their research. The children are so thanked and appreciated. Of course, they are pepping to continue, says Karin Ursing Rask.
Mayflower has been around since 1907 and is Sweden's largest child care organization. The Queen is its highest patron and has a deep commitment to the questions.
- In the spring, many children and school classes are committed to collecting money for this important purpose, and in the autumn a ceremony will be held in which attention will be paid to the students who have worked intensively. It is an important work carried out by many schools and therefore important to pay attention, says Margaret Thorgren, director of the press department.
