Watching glue dry (sh.itjust.works)

I was fixing some toys of my 5 year old and he asked me if he could watch the glue dry... I told him "son, that's like watching grass grow ๐Ÿ˜’"... his reaction, "really ๐Ÿ˜ฑ... can I go in the backyard?", me "yeah, sure, I guess ๐Ÿคฆ ๐Ÿ˜‚".

He's still there... sitting on the ground, watching... asking every 2 minutes if the grass is any taller ๐Ÿคฃ.

I loved the plant unit in elementary school. We had a planter with glass on the side, and for the first week or so everyone would rush to check how the seeds were doing. Then we got bored until the first seed sprouted.

This channel can be fun, it shows a timelapse of how different plants grow: https://www.youtube.com/@Boxlapse
