We have quite a stash of Playmobil eggs and thought it would be fun to re-use them in some way. We’ve been wanting to grow cress for a while so thought we would combine the two to make Playmobil cress heads.
Equipment needed to make Playmobil cress heads:
Cress seeds
Cotton wool
Water
Empty Playmobil eggs
How to make Playmobil cress heads:
First we torn the pieces of cotton wool into small pieces and placed it inside the Playmobil eggs.
We sprinkled water over the cotton wool.
We placed small clear plastic bags over each Playmobil egg and placed them in a warm spot to grow. After 48 hours they were already showing signs of growth so fingers crossed we will actually grow and eat our own cress this year.
I love BB’s face when he’s concentrating…………xxxx
What a great idea!
Growing cress is good fun and the children love seeing and watching it.
