future kids, nothing! I want one now, for me!
(My current kids would love it, too, though. And I'd let them have a turn once in awhile.)

We make containers out of newspaper. I can't really describe how fold them, but you can google newspaper seed starter pots and get lots of links. I like the oragami like ones that don't use staples. They're quick and we can just plant the whole pot when it's time.

I think it is less traumatic for the plant than transplanting. Newsprint is somewhat acidic, but I've never had it affect my seedlings at all and have started dozens in it. Best of all, it just disappears into the soil during the growing season: cheap, green, available.
