Grassy Monsters

To add to our fun, we made grassy monsters!
The items you will need for this project is:

- Black knee high pantie hose
- Google Eyes
- Tacky Glue
- Plastic Cups
- Sequence, buttons, etc
- Top Soil
- Grass Seed

1. Using a plastic cup, place the knee high into the cup with the toe area facing the bottom.
2. Pour about 1/8th of a cup of grass seed into the toe area.
3. Pour about 1 to 2 cups of top soil in. This is determined by how large of a monster you want to make.
4. Tie very tight and clip off any excess.


5. Glue eyes and decorations onto the front to make a face.



6. When dry- place (knot side down) into a plastic cup of water and place in the window.


After a week or two, you will start to see hair!! They all grew at different rates but it was fun to see where the grass grew in accordance to the face. I had some students put eyes all over the top, so when the grass grew in it was between all the eyes.
