Easy Ways for Kids to Start Seeds

January 26, by Sarah White. Leave a Comment

start seeds using recycled materials

Planting seeds indoors and observing the plants as they grow is a common activity this time of year in preschool classrooms and beyond.

The great thing about it, in addition to teaching kids about how plants grow and the parts of a plant, is that it’s an activity that can be done inexpensively and often using upcycled materials.

Views from a Stepstool has a look at six ways to start seeds using recycled materials, from egg cartons and juice boxes to dryer lint (yes, really).

Kids always get so excited to plant seeds and watch them grow, and these are some really fun ideas.

Have you ever started seeds with kids? How did you do it?
