Newspaper Garden

Spring is a great time to plant some seeds, both inside and outside. 

Do you want to plant some seeds, but do not have a pot? No worries! You can make your own homemade pot using newspaper. 

The best part about using newspaper? When your plant grows big and you want to plant it outside, put the whole newspaper pot in the ground. Can you guess what will happen?... it will break down and become soil!

Watch the video below to learn how to plant seeds and make your own newspaper pot.
