- Wash and dry a NESTLÉ JUICY JUICE plastic bottle.
- Cut bottle in half. Use the bottom half for your Earthworm Habitat.
- Add a Layer of small rocks in the bottom
- Layer sand and soil alternately until nearly full.
- Moisten with water.
- Place the earthworms over the soil
- Cover them with fresh leaves.
- Put in a dark place and keep soil moist
- Add a small plant or grass seeds
The
worms will eventually pull the grass and leaves under the soil to eat them, which you'll be able to observe through your bottle.
- After you have observed the worms at work, place them back into the garden so that they can continue to
cultivate the outdoor soil
