I was pleasantly surprised today when I walked into my classroom! Sprouts EVERYWHERE!
It won't be long now and those little baby plants will find their way into our Kinder-garden raised beds.
Some of them began as a little experiment. The old, "Seed in a Baggie" experiment. This is a great way for kids to see the beginnings of plants.
All you need is a few quickly sprouting seeds, I chose green beans, a paper towel, some water and a zip-log bag.
I am always amazed how quickly these little things grow! Kind of like kindergarteners!

| materials set out and ready to go. |
 |
| 1. Fold the paper towel. |
 |
| 2. Then soak it in some water. You want it wet, but not drippy. |
 |
| 3. Place the wet paper towel in the bottom of a zip-loc bag. |
 |
| 4. Place two seeds on top of the paper towel and seal the bag tightly. |
 |
| 5. Hang them in a sunny window and watch the magic! |
 |
| Seeds after only 2 days! You can see a little root shooting downward. |
 |
| After one week! |
