Mrs. Mandy's Batch Plants a Pumpkin Patch

It all started last fall... we saved the seeds from our class pumpkin. In the spring we created some tiny terrariums and sprouted a seed for each student. We planting the seeds in cups and learned that all plants need sunlight, water, and soil. A few weeks ago we transplanted our young plants into the first ever "Mrs. Mandy's PreK Pumpkin Patch!" (Thanks Mom and Dad for letting us dig up your yard.) I can't wait to see what happens in the fall!




Each student painted a stake to mark their very own pumpkin plant.






In you go little plant.


A little water makes it official. Now we just sit back and watch them grow!
