This is the twenty-third day of my research assistant role of the Youth Gardening Project. Today's location was at the Tuskegee University Chambliss Building(old business bldg). It was the first day as a research assistant that I begun work with the Macon County YMCA chilren ages 5-14. Each age group had an opportunity to paint their own ladybug rock in their own individual style and uniqueness. It was interesting to find out that majority of the older children maintain their rock color to only one color. Majority of the younger children preferred to use more than two colors if not all the colors on their rock. Therefore, is it fair to say that you reach the pinnacle of your creativeness as a young child and when you get older it declines? The other part of the day was split into with planting either pumpkin or raddish seeds into small white seed trays.
