Plant several containers of the same seed, and place them in different environments. Place one in soil with water in full sun. Place the second in soil with water and no sun and the third in soil with no water and no sun. This is a great way to demonstrate how to take care of plants and how different plants may have different needs. Encourage the children to observe and record their findings in the science center. Do this several times with different seeds.
