But you can give lollipops to flowers.

A sign about what you can and can’t do in an aera.
What you can do :
- A flower and a lollipop. Maybe it’s a windmill. Edit: it’s a magnifying glass and a flower.
- A bird with some sound or ultra sound coming to it.
- A person sitting crossing their legs like meditating. Maybe their legs are wood.
- A dog in leash.
- A person throwing two little cubes in a bin or in a giant glass.
- A shoe. It’s written “Comfortable shoes are recommended” in English and Italian.
What you can’t do :
- A fire. The wood is the same than the legs of the meditating person.
- A person swimming in water.
- A cigarette.
- A square, each faces having some antenna or reversing syringes. Probably a drone.
- A hand grabbing a flower. Or a windmill.
- A hand close to a cat.
- A head, mouth open, talking.
- An ice cream cone.
- A bike.
- A moving ball.
I’m with you on that. Magnifying glass is usually “inspect” versus “look” and an eye (perhaps with a dotted line connecting it to the flower) seems altogether more obvious.
That said, although the point of pictograms is to (hopefully!) be clear and multilingual, there might be cultural differences at play that mean I shouldn’t jump to conclusions.
It does seem an unusual choice though.
