Grow, Thrive and Survive
During this project, children learn how plants grow from seeds and bulbs. They observe plant growth firsthand, recording changes over time and identifying what plants need to grow and stay healthy. Through practical investigation and careful observation, children develop a secure understanding of the conditions that support plant growth.
