3. cover the seeds with peat moss or peat moss with some soil on top
4. try and keep the area moist for about 10 days and you should see some shoots of grass growing
While this might work, if your seeds decide to not get disturbed or blown away, the almost equivalent cost and effort of putting sod in for almost instant results is well worth it.

Unless you have a bunch of seed already, it isn't worth the time or money you would put into it.
