Bear has embarked on an exciting project. He is growing seedlings to sell to his adult friends. He's been expressing a desire to have more money to buy the things he wants and this seems like the perfect solution.
He's taken out a loan (from me) and has bought some seeds and seed raising mix. He's had a few generous donations of more seed raising mix and even more seeds. He's done almost all of the work himself , filling the pots, counting and planting the seeds, and writing the labels. He remembers to water them with the help of an alarm we've set to go off daily. Some very enthusiastic watering meant he had to start again with several pots, which was a great learning experience for him.
I've found that the labels have been great writing practise and mornings seem to be the best time of day for him to get stuck into it.
