Description
The self-watering planter activity lets young learners build a simple system using basic materials like a container, soil, and a wick to see how plants can get water on their own. It develops early science and design skills as students notice how water moves through the wick and soil and begin to explain what they see. It also introduces foundational ideas about plant needs and water movement in a very hands-on, accessible way suited for primary grades (grade 1-4).
