Happy Friday!
This morning a friend noticed a seed pod hanging from a plant and asked if it was a tomato. It was round like a tomato but was dry and small. We opened it and found it was full of seeds. We talked about how the flower on this plant had become a seed pod after it was pollinated. After that, several kids searched for different types of seed pods around the outdoor area. We found there were Rose of Sharon seed pods, money plant seed pods and milkweed pods. We brought our seeds to the deck to spend time opening the pods and collecting seeds. We talked about how they were the same, how they were different and what kinds of plants they could grow into. It was a wonderful child lead science project!
