Tomato plant pot crafting

7/6/2014

12 Comments

 

We've been spending a lot of time in the garden and Little E has become really interested in plants and has shown an interest in growning her own. Fortune shone upon us this week as Husband's bottle of tomato ketchup came with free tomato seeds. This was the prefect opportunity to try out the Baker Ross plant pot kit I've been meaning to buy seeds for since the beginning of Spring!

Picture

The kit includes four plant pots which you decorate by colouring one of the pre-printed paper designs or you can use the blank template to create your own unique design.

Little E enjoyed colouring the templates and decided on the heart design for her flower pot. You simply place the finished template in between the two pieces of plant pot and clip it closed encasing the design behind the see through plastic outer skin. This was easy enough for Little E to do herself.

We then put our wellies on and went outside. She filled it with soil and added her tomato seeds. We watered and put the pot in a sunny spot on our window ledge because we don't have a greenhouse. I then crossed my fingers that tomatoes will appear.

Little E has already asked where her tomatoes are so this will be a good lesson in patience! I now need to get some seeds for the other three pots...

Those pots look like a great idea! I have the opposite problem to you. I have loads of seeds but nothing to put them in! #countrykids
