Eggling
You might expect a baby chick to pop his head out of this delicate little Eggling ($10), but a different kind of life grows inside. The first step is to gently crack open the white ceramic egg and place it in the terra cotta tray. You can choose lavender, basil, or strawberry seeds when you order, which get planted in the fortified peat mixture. Before you know it, you’ll have a beautiful plant that can be transferred to your garden in a few months. An Eggling is a fun way to teach kids about the responsibilities of caring for a living thing.
