Read the book Seeds, Seeds, Seeds by Nancy Wallace. Provide three shallow containers or separate a tray into three sections. In one section place newspaper, in another section place one or two pieces of dry, light-colored sponges and in the last section place a layer of soil. Have the children use spray bottles to wet each section. Ask the children to predict where grass seed will grow. Have the children sprinkle grass seeds in each section and spray each section once again. Place the container in an area where they can observe the seeds.
