Plastic Bottle Terrarium STEM Project

A Terrarium is a self-sustaining ecosystem filled with plant life held inside a clear container. In this project, we will be using a plastic bottle to create a terrarium that will aide in teaching children about ecosystems and the water-cycle.

Materials:

• Plastic bottle
• Scissors
• Small stones or gravel
• Activated Charcoal (optional)
• Potting soil
• Small plants or seeds
• Water

Instructions:

1. Clean the Plastic Bottle: Start by carefully cleaning the inside of the plastic bottle to prepare it for the terrarium environment.
2. Cut the Bottle: Approximately a third way from the bottom, cut the plastic bottle around in a circle to make your terrarium easy to access.
3. Add the Drainage Layer: Put a layer of small stones or gravel at the base of the bottom part of the bottle. This is essential for proper drainage.
4. Add Activated Charcoal: Although optional, adding a layer of activated charcoal on top of the stones will help to filter the water and prevent mold and bacteria.
5. Add Soil: On top of your charcoal or stone layer, add a thick layer of moistened potting soil which will act as the bed for your plants or seeds.
6. Plant the Seeds: Now it's time to add your plants or seeds. Make sure the roots are covered with soil but the plant itself isn’t buried.
7. Watering: Add a small amount of water, being careful not to overwater. The stones at the bottom create a reservoir that plants can draw from.
8. Close the Terrarium: Lastly, place the top of your bottle back on, creating a closed ecosystem for your plants to thrive in.
9. Place Your Terrarium: Put your terrarium in a location where it will receive indirect sunlight and watch as your ecosystem comes to life.
