In this project, create and examine garden mulch to find out what critters live in the messy, muddy layers just above the soil.

Let your kid experiment with textures among fabric and other materials that are smooth, rough, soft, or slippery—and then they'll make a texture book!

This activity allows your kindergartener to translate what they observe into a beautiful poem.

This project is a vivid, concrete introduction to the basic but important idea that plants need sunlight and water to grow.
