Default can I transplant a bean plant?

ok well I decided to entertain my kids by putting some wet paper towel in a jar and put a bean on it so it would grow and well this bean is going crazy lol, its wrapping its roots around the paper towel and is growing right out of the jar. Now would this bean plant survive if I planted it in the garden? If I can plant it, should I unwrap its roots from the paper towel or should I just put the paper towel in the ground along with the roots seeing as it seems to not be doing any harm to our little guy? I think my son would be quite upset if I just had to let it die as he is getting quite attatched to it LMAO...
