Our Sunflower House

Today we will be planting our sunflower house. This idea came from reading a book with the same title this past Fall. The book tells the story of a little boy whose parents gave him sunflower seeds to plant. While the directions say to plant them in a nice straight row, he chose to plant his in a large circle. This resulted in a magnificent sunflower house that was used all summer long and became a very special place for the boy and his friends. After reading this book, our kids decided they wanted to make their very own sunflower house. We planted seeds a week ago and now they are ready to plant. We will be documenting this very cool experiment on our blog(:
