    Seeing the kids' reaction when they see that their seeds are starting to hatch:)

    The lad sowed some sunflowers just on Thursday evening. About half of them already have the first signs of growth.

          They are hatching in the very real sense, even if the terminology is not quite correct. The outer seed casings have ruptured, and the embryonic plant inside is forcing its way out into the big bad world. Hence hatching:)
