Our Greenhouse (and Redhouse)

Davis and Andrew have been asking to plant seeds recently, so I got a couple of Sesame Street "My First Garden" kits for them. Since Andrew loves tomatoes and Elmo, I got him the Elmo's tomato growing kit. And, because Davis's favorite color is green, I got him the Oscar the Grouch green bean growing kit. They had so much fun creating their greenhouses and planting their seeds. I tried explaining the concept of a greenhouse, but they still called Andrew's a "redhouse" because his pots and Elmo stickers were red. Not sure my explanation was very effective. That's ok - they had a blast! We put them in the kitchen window sill and I'm sure they'll be checking them every day.
