On a day when March showers, hopefully, bring May flowers, several youngsters made a "greenhouse," planted bean seeds in the "structure," and did a lot of coloring.

The spring activity at the Ada Public Library on Thursday involved coloring the edges of a "greenhouse," adding some seeds inside a plastic bag, and placing cotton balls inside the bag for moisture to help the seeds sprout. Soon, the children will have their own bean starts to plant at home.
