My Project

Please help me by donating to my project and getting planting in the hands of children. My goal is for the children to start the plants in the classroom and then be able to take home to replant and continue to watch grow.

Planting is a great way to explore science with children.

And children love to watch the fruits of their labor grow. We will plant from seeds, water and take care of them every day. We will chart and discuss daily the changes we see and predict what we think will happen next. Thank you very much for your help!!!
