Sunflower Kids,[1] also known as Kid Sunflowers[2] and Sunflowers,[1][3] are flowers that inhabit Pinna Park in Super Mario Sunshine. Though not commonly interactive, Sunflower Kids are part of one episode where the Snooza Koopas nibble on their roots, making them turn brown and begin to wilt, but a Sunflower Kid is restored each time Mario defeats a Snooza Koopa. After every Sunflower Kid has been restored, the Great Sunflower does, too, and rewards a Shine Sprite.

In the Super Mario Mash-up in Minecraft, Sunflowers are replaced by Sunflower Kids.
