Step One... buy some little kits from the store. Read the instructions!
Step Two... Put the dirt puck in water so the dirt will grow!
Step Three... Put your dirt in the container.
Step Four... Add the seeds (very important step!)
Step Five... Place trees in windowsill and water every day.
Step Six... Come back often to see if your tree is growing.
Note: At some point, you may need to transplant one or two trees from one child's container to another... without them knowing, of course! This keeps things even, and everyone happy... but could backfire when slower-to-sprout trees come up in the container that you have just transplanted into... thus causing uneveness again. So, maybe just leave things alone. We ended up with E=1, T=2, and S=4. Oh well, at least the oldest has the most.

What a cute idea! Elise is getting so big already:)
I saw those on your window sill and wondered what they were. How cute! Where did you get the kits?
Those are really cool! Alexa says we should do them with our Students that come this Christmas. Might be a great plan! Better get some before they are gone... Thanks for the idea!
I got these from Michaels for $1.50 each... The kids love checking their progress!!
That's a really cool idea!
