Make Your Own Easter Grass With Wheat

2 weeks or so before Easter, soak some wheat kernels (also called wheat berries) overnight.
In the morning, drain them in a sieve and then plop onto about 4 layers or so of wet paper towel that is nestled into a favorite bowl or container.
Keep a squirt bottle filled with water nearby and occasionally squirt with water. Depends on where you live as to how much. In the desert here, I squirted it twice a day. If using a basket, have some plastic wrap on the very bottom of the basket, then put the wet paper towel on top of that.
This was about 13 days later...
If you have a cute critter to stick in the grass, do so This was on top of a screw on lid of a cantiner I got at Dollar Tree...it was perfect!...and of course some small eggs:
