The Heart Room has been going green lately. We started by planting some grass seeds in some flats in our atrium. This is the time of year I am desperate to grow things, and anything will do. It gets me through till spring. Or at least till daylight savings time.
Today I noticed the grass had gotten so long it was starting to droop.
I offered the children some scissors, and they got to work giving the grass a "hair cut." They put the trimmings in our new compost bucket.
The children informed me that the compost didn't smell yet (so far it has oranges and banana peels in it) because it was full of fresh grass.
I'd say they did a pretty thorough job of it!
The end!
