Making plantable paper is the ultimate eco-friendly craft and folk art.  Make either a sheet of paper or a ball with seeds inside, plant it, water it, watch it grow.  As gifts, make plantable gift tags, cards, party favors.  Spread the love of greening in someone's favorite garden or patch of dirt!  
 
Why it is INTENSIVE:
Preparation, set-up, and break down takes approximately 40 minutes.
One instructor helps two participants at a time pull sheets of paper from the tub.
Pairs or small groups rotate through a series of "jobs" relying on one or two adults for group management.
Time needed to rotate through the group will vary, and 1-3 adults helping with young folks is suggested.  
Some preparation and basic materials are required.
