Project Garden: Day 1

DSC_1702_mod
Lauren has been learning all about seeds at school. And last week she redeemed 5 stars on her chore chart at home for a surprise, which happened to be 4 packs of seeds! Today we visited the dollar store, picked up some plastic planters, a trowel, and a few more seeds - and planted away.

We also made these little garden markers (printed out on the computer, and glued to plastic picks) so we could remember what we planted.

Lauren dropped the seeds one by one into the 3 rows of holes we poked in the soil.

Hopefully something will sprout, and maybe last at least till the beginning of summer? We'll see how long we keep up with the watering.....

What fun! I sure hope they sprout, that's what will make the pay off.
