Julieboo- My trips to the vet have always encountered a pretty sterile, boring exam room. What about doing the waiting room where there are different animals, pet food, toys, etc? Or a "recovery room" where there are different animals sleeping on tables with blankets and iv's made of skewers and little corners of ziploc bags and fishing line attaching them to the animal?

Wargod- You could have Dakota get two plants and give them both sun and water, but instead of starving/killing one plant, give one plant miracle-gro, fertilizer, a name, talk to it, etc. Then she could see of the products/attention do indeed raise a happier plant? (She is probably too young to tie in the comparison to bodybuilders who are natural vs. those on steroids...)

But that wouldn't be photosynthesis.. Sandy don't feel too guilty.. you can always use the non-survivor as mulch so it will contribute to the universe...

Or.. she could put one plant in the closet for half of the daylight hours and compare the difference?

By adding nutrients and other chemicals to supplement the basic photosynthesis formula (where Oxygen and Water are used to create Carbohydrate and Oxygen) it could still relate to the photosynthesis process.

Could you get a plant to grow from a seed in a little over a month? I know at one point Walmart had these little do it yourself greenhouses, just a small plastic container. It was a kit that came with some peat moss? and seeds and all you did was put the seed in the peat moss stuff, water it, close the lid and set it in the sun. She'll want something to show though at the fair so it'd have to be growing well to do it. That would be photosynthesis right?

Cndear, good for you, I was coming here this morning to again request the questions be in color. I get so frustrated trying to find the questions when everything is in black. It's not good to frustrate an old lady. Drainpipe...lint or that missing sock.

Washer drain overflow happened to me. I took my garden hose and crammed it down the drain hole and gave it a strong blast of water... cleared it right up. If you try this method, have some towels handy, be prepared for some splash back.
