Terrarium FUN Activity :)

On the Disney Club Penguin Fun Activity Page we have got How to make a mini Garden Terrarium added under Arts and Crafts :)

Terrarium :)
Terrariums are miniature gardens that grow inside glass containers.

You Will Need
Clear glass or plastic container
This can be a fish bowl, a large vase, or even a glass jar
Potting soil
Small plants like: Begonias, Spider Plants, Small palms and Miniature ferns
Small stones

Directions
*Ask an adult for help

  1. Make sure your container is clean on the inside
  2. Put a layer of stones in the bottom
  3. Fill the container to about halfway with potting soil
  4. Put your plants inside. Make sure not to crowd them.
  5. Add more soil and press the soil down a little with your fingers
  6. Gently water the soil
  7. Place your terrarium somewhere that gets a small amount of sunlight
  8. Check your soil every couple of days. You only need to water your plants when the soil is dry.
  9. Want to add a little extra to your terrarium? You can add moss or even penguin figures!

You can PRINT out this Arts and Crafts :)

Detail: Sadly the Decorative Paper Lanterns are removed!

WARNING! The Plants need air! Make sure that the lid is little opened not in a totally closed jar like this! If you want to you can skip the lid :)

See earlier Club Penguin Activities :)

  1. Actually, plants need carbon dioxide. We breathe oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. Plants breathe carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen. You should just put they need air or something.

  6. @Pengywin8 Actually, I disagree. Part of Earth Day is recycling plastic. It would be amazing for you to use plastic, because you can reuse the plastic jar. On the other hand, the production of plastic does pollute the Earth alot. Hmmm... This would be an interesting topic!
