Activity 7: Make a Head Cress

In this lesson, you'll make a head cress by planting cress seeds on a small container with cotton wool/kitchen towel. You’ll learn about how plants grow, how to take care of them, and the conditions they need to thrive, like water and sunlight. As you watch the cress grow, you’ll also observe how seeds change into plants and discover how this simple experiment teaches you about plant life cycles! Remember to keep the cotton wool/kitchen towel damp!
