Growing Beans in a CD Case

July 30, 2011

I saw this fun homeschool experiment on Pinterest and had to share.

Next time you are growing beans as an experiment, place the dirt and beans in a clear CD case. This protects the beans but still allows the kids to see them growing. You can read more about the experiment on Art Projects for Kids. Clever idea!

    What a great idea! Easier and more compact than the typical paper-towels-in-a-mason-jar setup, and who doesn’t have a few empty cd cases?

    What a great idea. So much better than using a paper towel or plastic bag. Thanks for sharing.
