Eggshells, small garden pots or half coconut shells

An egg try

Potting soil

Millet birdseed

A jug of water

Paints for decorations

Preparation:

• Draw a face on each of the eggshells (or pots or coconut shells). Stand the eggshells in the egg try to keep them steady
• Fill the eggshells with soil
• Sprinkle the birdseed over the soil in the containers and place in the windowsill.  Remember to keep the soil moist.
• after a few day, the seeds will sprout a shock of green hair over the painted faces.
