Gardening and learning about plants
My son, Ari has been fascinated with how plants grow. So he often asks about seeds and where does trees and plants come from. So, we teach him about seeds and how the roots and leaves sprout from it. We even tried planting tomato seed and when they started sprouting, we showed him the roots and the leaves. The tomato plant did not survive the cold temperamental weather, and so we plan to plant it again in the summer.
We often visit our local library, and during one of the visits, they gave away some money plant stems. We took it back home and put it in a glass of water. Several weeks later, root sprouted out and then a tiny leaf sprouted out. Weeks later, roots have grown and our plant has now 3 new leaves. This is surely one of the easiest activity and kids will surely enjoy and learn about plants.
