Garden in a Glove

February's Farm Bureau visit.
Kim Douglas with Farm Bureau reinforced what we had learned in our Science class with growing and sprouting plants.  We knew we need sunlight, water, air, and soil.  Kim ask if we could plant seeds but NOT use soil?  This visit had us doing an experiment with growing a GARDEN IN A GLOVE.  We took a plastic glove and put in each finger a wet cotton ball that had tiny seeds attached.  We stuck one cotton ball in each finger of the glove.
When all the fingers were full of cotton balls and seeds, we closed the glove, tied it shut, and attached yarn to hang in a window at our homes.  This way sunlight will help our experiment sprout.  In about 4 weeks we hope to see if our garden in a glove will sprout.
