Growing plants is always good fun and easy to do .
What you need
Toilet roll
Scissors
old waterproof plate or Tupperware
a seed ( I used a sunflower seed)
You will need to cut tabs about 1 inch all around the end of the loo roll.
Then you need to fold the tabs in (as shown in the photo ).
Fill with soil.
Place in a seed.
Don't forget to water your seed and put it somewhere that it can get light.
Once you see shoots you will need to plant then outside.
