Maggie over at Smashed Peas And Carrots has a really creative craft for making your own homemade Chia Pet (or head). Here's how she made it:
Chia Pet
1 knee-high nylon stocking
moistened soilgrass seed
1 knee-high nylon stocking
moistened soilgrass seed
markers, foam pieces, sticky eyeballs, etc.
Take a tablespoon of grass seed and place it in the very bottom of your nylon stocking. Next take a baseball-sized lump of soil and work it down on top of your grass seed. Twist the nylon so as to keep the ball of soil and grass seed at the bottom. Wrap the twisted nylon around the ball and turn the open end inside out around the ball. Hope this makes sense...if not hopefully you can get the gist of it from the pictures. Decorate with markers, foam pieces, eyeballs, or whatever your little one's heart desires. Water the top of the head and watch it grow!
This is where the hair will grow. Then you can have all sorts of fun giving your Chia cool 'dos (or don'ts!)
