more on gardening with kids…

Jen over at Diary of 1 has a great post about what she and her daughter JoJo have done with the Roots, Shoots, Buckets, and Boots: Gardening with Children book in their own garden, and mentions the idea of theme gardens (like the pizza patch; apizza-shaped garden to grow pizza toppings!) and the best plants to grow for kids. She’s also giving away a copy of the book! Check it out here!















Hey, thanks for the mention! I did already give this away to one lucky gal in Mesa, Arizona! But it’s so worth the investment if you have little ones and want to encourage gardening. We are going to make the Sunflower House mentioned in this book, but our garden will be traditional rows, after all. My husband is an artistic, straight-lines and angles kind of guy and didn’t want a round garden! Oh well, it will all taste the same.
