What to do 1. Give each child a baggie and a few popcorn kernels. 2. Invite the children to place several spoonfuls of soil in their baggies, and then to press a couple of popcorn kernels into the soil. They should add a tiny bit of water and seal the baggie. 3. Tape the baggies to a sunny window. Soon the root system will sprout, making a pretty and interesting design against the light. 4. Encourage the children to check their baggies frequently. More to do More art: Invite the children to draw what is happening in the baggie. Science: With your help, children can record the changes in the kernel on a sheet of paper.
