This is a great project. Watch your seeds grow in just a few days. The best thing about this is that you can find everything you need in the kitchen.
For this project you will need:
1 x jam jar
2 x tablespoons of seeds
1 x bit of muslin or thin cloth
1 x elastic band
Find a large jam jar and put 2 tablespoons of seeds in it. Try dried (not tinned!) chickpeas, whole lentils or mung beans.
Cover the seeds with plenty of water and then cover the jar with muslin and secure with an elastic band, and soak the seeds overnight.
Keep the jar in a warm place but not in direct sunlight.
Rinse and drain the seeds twice daily.
In just a few days your seeds will start to sprout and will be ready to eat!
Add your tasty sprouts to salads and sandwiches.
Please make sure you ask a responsible adult to help you.
