About 2 weeks after putting our lima beans in the wet paper towels, this is what they looked like! The stems and roots have grown like crazy!
I found a really cute virtual story on Tumble Books about lima beans. It is called The Lima Bean Monster. Click on the link below to watch the story with your child: http://www.tumblebooks.com/library/asp/full_book.asp?ProductID=41
Your child will be bringing his/her lima bean plants home on the last day of school. Plant it and see what happens. Maybe you and your child can enjoy some home-grown lima beans over the summer!
