Earth Day Seed Bombs. Scoop out a small handful of goop and squeeze again to get most of the water out. Shape into a ball. Place your goop ball in the corner of a big square of tissue paper. Roll it around, wrapping the paper around it to completely cover it. Rip off small pieces of colorful tissue paper and add to the outside of the ball to decorate. It should stick because your goop ball is still damp. (Did you know that the Earth is about 71% water?) Put your seed bombs in an egg carton to bring home. Set your Earth Seed Bombs out in the sun for a bit to fully dry. When you are ready, plant them somewhere and they will grow flowers!

Nature Print Necklaces. Take one piece of clay and roll it into a ball. Choose the nature pieces you want to use and put them on top of your ball. Use a cup to smash your ball into a flat disc. Use a straw to put a hole in the top of your disc for the ribbon to go through. Loop ribbon through hole and tie ends in a knot.
