Green Thumb Practice

The Easter bunny brought us some fun craft/growing projects. They loved planting their own seeds and watching them grow. I got my first herb garden starter kit. I have had bad luck with house plants in the past so I am very excited to see all of my herbs have sprouted. My goal is to start our first garden outside next Spring. This was a good confidence boost for me. I'm a little overwhelmed with trying to get my grass to grow and and the weeds to stop growing in our yard this year to take on the challenge.

Eliza spent hours and hours painting her cat. I think he turned out really cute.


Hannah spent about 2 minutes painting her cat and loves it the same. She takes it everywhere in the house with her. I had to hide it...I mean her cat got lost for a couple of days so the seeds could sprout. The grass is slowly disappearing because she is loving it to death.
