Seeds bombs are really catching on and this is a fad we can get behind! If you can't find one of these vending machines from Greenaid you can always make your own.

Seed bombs are simple to make and kids of all ages love them as gifts. After you make them you can wrap them individually or make them into kits. I like to use the cardboard tubes from toilet paper,  Seal the bottom and fill with dried seed bombs. Then package it with a slingshot so the kids can launch them in hard to reach places.
