Hi to all!

Our local science museum asks scientists to come in on Saturdays and do
something interactive with kids.  The kids are wandering by various
displays and may stop at our tables for 5-10 minutes max.  I need some
intriguing, interactive plant ideas for ages from toddler to 3rd or 4th
grade.  Some things which come to mind:

celery and food dye
resurrection plants
leaf prints
bee and flower finger puppets or hats (xerox on white paper and have the
kids color and cut - with help cutting for the little ones)

We could have 50 or 1500 (!!!really this could happen if it is a rainy
day) so things which can be copied in a hurry or are really inexpensive
are a must.

All ideas greatly appreciated!

Beverly
