Gardening with Kids Activities

Who doesn’t love gardening with kids? Gardening is such a natural way to get sensory input and learn about the world around us. Our daffodils are just starting to peek through the soil, and I’m ready to get my hands dirty with the children.

      Absolutely, Paris. I believe gardening is an awesome way to get the kids connected with the earth, burn off energy and get a “lesson” in there as well.

    Oops, I added my bean burrito here thinking it was the flash Fridays one. Pretend I grew the beans in my garden ;). You can delete it; I’ll add it to the right linky! Thanks! #150

    Those are some great ideas – my toddler is always wanting to help so maybe now she can and learn some stuff at the same time! Thanks for sharing!

      I think you’d be surprised how much toddlers get into gardening. Of course at that age you really need to monitor and make it easy but most kids love feeling like they’re making the garden grow.
