Egg Man

These Grass Hair Egg Men are fun for kids. They love to see how things grow. At least mine does. Everyday it is fun to wake up and see how much the grass has grown and to water them. It gives your child a chance to be responsible for something. Let them water the grass with a spray bottle. Here's what you need:
*Eggs and a carton
*knife and bowl
*soil
*grass seed
*spray bottle

First tap off the top of your eggs and wash and dry them.



Then let your child fill them with soil and sprinkle the grass seeds in. (we might have gone overboard on the seeds)


Cover the seeds with more soil and lightly water. Make sure not to over water these. That's why I recommend a spray bottle. Then in less than a week, see hair start to sprout! Saetia decorated hers with permanent markers. You could really get into it and glue on googly eyes or foam shapes. You could add pipe cleaner glasses or feet. I think next time I'll use alfalfa sprouts so when you give your egg a haircut you can eat the sprouts!
