Things to do in your free time
Tips for You and Your Child to Enjoy Gardening


1. Choosing the Plants: Remember that the garden space is small, so stick to a handful of varieties. Include some flowers as well as some veggies. Bright flowers at child height, sunflowers. Every kid is amazed at anything that grows 8 feet tall.

2. Starting Seeds: Let the kids help with starting the seeds. Some of the seeds may be to small for little fingers, but they can always be the helper who covers them with soil.

3. Put the Garden Where They Will See It: To start the garden, pick a sunny spot in the backyard near where the kids play or often walk by. The more they see their garden, the more they'll notice changes. If you don't have a yard, you can still have a garden in pots on a patio or inside on a windowsill, maybe even in their room.

4. Playing with Dirt: Remember that kids love playing with dirt. Let them help you prepare the soil, even if all they are capable of is stomping on the clumps. Kid sized tools will make them feel even more a part of the project.

5. Identify the Garden as Theirs: Mark each plant with the tag or seed packet it came with, so that the kids can see what the flowers or vegetables will look like. Also make a sign for the whole garden with the child’s name, so everyone can see that it's their garden.

6. Playing with Water: Playing with water is right up there with playing with dirt. Give the kids a small watering can to use on their garden. Show them how to gently let the water go right to the roots of the plants. Hoses are just asking for trouble.

7. Let Them Make Their Own Mistakes: Sometimes adults don't have a lot of patience either. Let the kids have control of their garden. If it's messy, it's their mess. Let them enjoy it and take pride in their own piece of land.
