Be sure to tape your baggie to the back of the greenhouse. It fits perfectly in the window opening that you have cut out.
This was so much fun to do with our kindergarten students and they are having a blast watching these grow in their personal greenhouse. They look precious hanging up in the windows at our school. Be sure to soak your beans overnight to get fast germination and great results. Remember that 5 year olds have no patience to wait. We even looked at the baby inside of a bean after soaking it overnight and the children were fascinated with this science activity. I promise that you cannot kill these if you follow these directions and they get plenty of sun. Everyone has a green thumb in kindergarten! Now go try this.

Fran, I always LOVE your stuff. It makes me wish I had windows in my rooms! (I know scandilous that I don't!) Maybe I can figure out a way to have them up outside..
But I'm moving this summer, so I'll tuck this file away in hopes for windows next year!

Thanks for always making our job a little easier! My kiddos will love this. Our plant unit starts on Earth Day! Fran you are the best, wished I lived in California.
You have never produced anything that I don't absolutely love!!! Is that a double negative? Thank you for your generosity. It touches my heart that you are so creative, talented and so willing to share. Thank you.

I am so happy to help all of you with these little printables. The Greenhouse is precious and I love seeing it in Kinder classrooms. Thank you for such sweet comments and I am going to add more freebies!
We, your GFS friends, have decided to put this adorable greenhouse on a planted bean in a plastic cup. Stop by next week and see it growing. Love this!!
I cannot wait to see what my BFF's at GFS have done. I loved seeing my peeps and this time I need to bring you something special! Hummmmm...
What a great little greenhouse- just love it! The only window in my classroom is a very small one on the door- sure wish I could "plant" them in windows. Thanks for sharing:-)
Thanks! I bought greenhouses fro Lakeshore and am short 2. Your greenhouse will be perfect! Thanks again!

This is very cool. I teach students with autism so anything visual is great. Thank you so much.
I found the link on Pinterest. This is fabulous! I'm a new follower!! :)
Hi Fran, thank you for the greenhouse. My students are going to be so excited when I hand them out tomorrow. We began the germination process today but now their lima beans will have a "home".
I am so excited to do these with my class. It will be a great addition to our science kit.
So excited to try this activity with my students! They will love being able to watch their seeds grow. Thanks for sharing!
