A qualitative observation is an observation of what something is, such as, I saw a pig, I saw sunlight, I saw a plane flying by, I saw a green fluid, etc. A quantitative observation is a numerical measurement of something, such as, I have 7.9 grams of sugar, the current air temperature is 13o C, the car is traveling at 52 kph, etc.
