Nanna and Papaw sent the boys Chia Pets for Easter. Ryland and Reed were a little confused when I opened the boxes, because they expected the pet to look like the picture on the box. Instead, the pets were "naked".
The prep process for the pets was a little different than expected. I had the boys all pumped up and ready to plant, and then I read the instructions. The pet bodies had to soak for an hour, and the seed mixture had to gel for an hour. Needless to say, the boys were pretty anxious.
Reed scooped the seed mixture right up without caring about how messy and slimy it was. Ryland was a little grossed out at first, but he got over it. After the seed mixture was smeared all over, we created a greenhouse out of plastic bags.
We hope there is sun tomorrow, so they will start growing. We can't wait to see their plush, green coats.
