This experiment works due to a simple principle: plants need light. Build a shoebox maze and watch the plant work though the obstacle course, searching for sun.

Introduce your child to science with something they see everyday--their shadow!

Why do plants wilt? Kids will learn to think critically about what environmental factors affect plants, and what plants need to survive.

Kids will build a turtle habitat in order to observe the climate preferences of this cold-blooded reptile.

How many steps long is the hallway? Kids put their graph-making skills to work as they make a step map of their own house.

Try this fun garden graphing project with your kindergartener this summer to give him a leg up in math and science while spending some valuable time outdoors!
