Join us for a look at plants and then get ready to get your hands dirty as we first decorate our pots, then plant our own seeds!

Join us as we read a few books and learn about planting seeds. Then we'll decorate our pots and get our hands dirty with soil and seeds!  This hands-on program will provide children with the opportunity to use their critical thinking and problem-solving skills to achieve a result. 


We will provide all the materials for this program. Sponsored by Friends of the Library, Montgomery County, MD, Inc. No registration needed.
