A simple craft to introduce the basic parts of a flowering plant, to include the medium: soil.The Sun Block Experiment: This experiment demonstrates how plants are affected by the lack of sunlight:
- place a can or lid on top of a green patch of grass in your yard (to keep the can steady put a rock or other heavy object on top).
- In a few days lift the can, and you will see the patch is losing color.
- In a week it will be very pale. Why? This is because it could not make food in the dark. It needed sunlight.
- Take away the can and the grass will soon recover.
