Fun little project for kids, the last time I made eggs I carefully cracked the eggs in half and saved the shells. I gently washed the shells and then let them dry. In the meantime I cut the egg carton down the length so it was a row of six and put the shells in the carton. I had the kids fill them with some potting soil and lay a couple of oregano and thyme seeds and added a little water. Then we put them in a sunny windowsill. Now the kids can watch them sprout, and when we transplant them we can just crush the shells around them because they release nutrients into the soil and help the plants thrive!
