I have loved Sprout for a while now.  Sprout is a pencil that has seeds, for you, to plant.  I love this product.  Instead of throwing away your used pencil, you plant it, and get beautiful flowers, herbs, or even trees.  This time around, we got Spruce trees.  I know they will make beautiful trees, in the future.  For now, they are pencils, and my son uses the pencils for school.  I also received a yellow pencil that is Daisy flowers.  I’ll be planting it in the spring. Jacob, my 11-year-old, loves using Sprout.  He likes that he can plant it, as well.  My daughter, age 25, loves that she can take them to school, and let her kids try something green.  She’s a teacher at a great school, and the kids love this concept.  She has already taken a few, and planted 1, to my knowledge. Sprout has now started making make up liners too.  These are amazing and give you the perfect look every time.  Amazing colors with a beautiful look, when done.  Again, you’ll be able to plant the seeds, in the tip, when you have used the makeup pencil to the end.  Two uses out of…

I love Zak Designs new Planeterra™ cups.  They are great.  When in landfill, they will break down in 3 to 5 years.  My son, and daughter, love drinking out of them.  I gave one to my son-in-law to be, and he’s using it too!  They say the cups are magnificent.  Jacob, my 9 year old, will only use these cups now.  He loves them so much. There is so much more to Earth Day!  There is Planet Earth, as you’ve never seen it before, the complete series.  My 9 year old was intrigued, watching this.  He’s learned a lot!  He loves the fact that it captures rare action, impossible locations and intimate moments of the planet’s best-loved wildest and most elusive creatures. Sprout has pencils you can plant, with seeds in their top.  These are great, and so environmentally friendly.  You can plant just about anything.  Take a look on Amazon to see more. I received Plantable Earth Paper, as well.  It’s so easy to plant, can’t wait to get it started, today! For these companies and more, follow This Frugal Family on Social Media!

I recently came across the product “Sprout”, and I love it.  My step-daughter is so pleased with the outcome of this product.  She loves that she can grow her own herbs, and veggies, with just a Pencil, or Ruler. Our Sprout came in Pencil style.  There were 3 in the Herb pack, 3 in the Veggie pack, and 3 in the Pizza pack.  This has been great fun, planting with my kids.  We live in Pennsylvania, so we got planters and a direct light for the plants.  This way, they will live in the house, and not outside, where they will die off. Sprout is a pencil that you can use, then plant, but to be honest, it was so amazing, that Sarah just planted them.  She loves the concept, and she is a 2 year College student.  Even my 5 year old, Jacob, loves this product.  He leaves them alone, but he does help Sarah water them. You can get one larger planter, or get several small planters, to plant your pencils.  We did small planters, but as you can see above, Sprout did a big planter.  Either way would work. Sprout is very well priced, at just $7.50…
