On Monday, we read Flower Garden by Eve Bunting. It is a story about a little girl that creates a flower garden to surprise her mother on her birthday. The little girl and her father buy the plants at a grocery store and brings them home on the bus. She lives in the city and had to climb stairs to get to her apartment. It is a wonderful story with so many new things to teach the children about!
We made our own flower box garden. It takes a lot of dirt! The children are very good about waiting their turn. :)
On Wednesday, the children made small terrariums. We cut a water bottled in half, added dirt, water and the top of a carrot. We put the top of the bottle back on and now we are waiting to see if the carrots will sprout. Hmm?
