Gardening season is here, are you ready? Get your kids excited about working in the garden by studying the plants that will be growing there. Beans are an easy plant to grow, they don’t take a lot of work and they’re the perfect science experiment. With these plant life cycle worksheets, you’ll be able to watch and name each life cycle stage.
Plant your own beans and see how they evolve from seeds to seedlings and then plants which seed pods.
Teach them about germination and how plants have to have the right conditions to grow like temperature, soil nutrients, and moisture before they can sprout.

To extend this activity, plant beans in your own backyard and see if you can recognize the different life stages of the plant. How they go from seeds, germination, seedling and then forming flowers and producing beans.
Then you can open up the beans to find more seeds, hence the circle of a bean plant.
Kids love watching their plants grow from seeds, read your favorite plant books and take for a visit to your local garden center. Don’t miss this opportunity to teach them outdoors.
