Answer 2

A popular project in my country is to ask kids to bring an empty glass jar, some cotton and black beans. Put the cotton on the bottom of the jar, place some seeds on it and pour water over it. Make sure the cotton has enough water to keep the seeds moist without having everything floating. Place the jar on a sunny spot and wait for the seed to grow. The cool thing about this project is that you can see the seed germinate and grow roots, and the stem.
