Gardening With Children

LEARNING HOW THINGS GROW AND WHERE FOOD COMES FROM CAN BE FUN.

Family, to children love being outside, playing in the dirt and emulating their parents. Channel your child's natural curiosity by teaching them how to grow their own flowers and edibles. With a little guidance and preparation on your part, your children can develop a deeper understanding of nature and a love for gardening that can last a lifetime.

FROM SOIL TO TABLE

Build your children's confidence in gardening by setting them up for success with easy-to-eat produce. Fast-growing plants like radishes start to grow in cooler climates and take only 30 to 60 days to mature. Amazing plants like sweet sunflowers germinate in just 7 days and can grow up to 2 feet in a month. If you want your child's harvest season to be an immediate success, give them vegetables and herbs to grow in their garden.

THEIR OWN GARDEN

Give each of your children their own plot to plant, preferably in the midst of the action where you do your gardening, so they don't feel left out. Don't be surprised if your children get distracted by interesting insects or the occasional frog. These encounters will broaden their knowledge and stimulate their curiosity about the natural world.

MAKE YOUR CHILDREN PROUD

Showcase your children's gardening achievements by taking photos and videos that you can share with friends and family. Take the fruits of your labor to the kitchen by cooking and baking delights with fresh ingredients from your garden. Encourage them to give away flowers they grow to their loved ones, allowing them to experience the joy of giving a beautiful homegrown gift.

GROW THEIR GARDENING INTERESTS

Once your children have developed a taste for gardening, try more challenging and engaging projects. Cultivate a pizza garden full of oregano, basil, tomatoes, and other ingredients for their favorite food. Bring the fall pumpkin harvest to your own backyard by planting pumpkins. Plant flowers like nasturtiums that are not only beautiful but also edible.
