Afternoon with the grandkids

After the bouncy ball idea fell flat. I recalled a craft idea that my daughter had pinned on Pinterest.  Found here .  We used knee-high stockings, annual rye grass and potting soil. The change that we did was that we used the see through goody ponytail holders to shape the nose and one, we even made ears.
A chenille stem was used for the mustache and felt for the mouth.  We improvised for our watering container. The heads would sink down into the yogurt cups so we cut holes in the bottom of "carry out" sauce cups and placed them inside the yogurt cup which kept the heads elevated. The water then placed in the bottom of the yogurt cup and the tail of the stocking threaded through the hole of the sauce cup to wick the water up.  Looking forward to  hair cuts.
