Mung bean sprouts are a vegetable grown by sprouting mung beans. We can add them in our soups, stir fries and salads.

Here is a story about a little boy named Jack. Jack has some magic beans! What will happen when they start to grow in his garden? Watch and find out!

Let’s try to grow our own mung bean sprouts!

Follow the instructions in the video to make your own.

Remember that they need plenty of water to grow!

Here are some other suggestions:

• document your plant growth using pictures and words
• share how you chose to cook and eat your bean sprouts

@M the Scientist explains and demonstrates the process!

“I want to make the mung bean sprout. I use these materials: mung、gauze、plastic case and water. I need to wait.”
