Kid Friendly Garden

Hi All!
I decided today would be a great day to blog. Are any of you interested in creating a garden? Or have your kids been wanting to help you out in the garden? I figured out a kid friendly way to garden. It won't take a lot of money, time and it won't be messy. If you don't feel like digging a big hole in the middle of your yard this is the garden for you!

1. Buy 2-3 vegetable plants. You can find reasonable priced plants at your local hardware or grocery store. I bought mine at Home Depot. The best types of plants that are easy to grow and yummy to eat are: tomatoes, green peppers and green beans. However, the beans will climb so they need something to attach to.

2. Pick a spot to place them. I have a deck and therefore I placed my plants inside our deck. This will keep the animals away, provide good sun and a place for my bean plant to crawl on. If you don't have a deck place the planets by some flowers. The flowers will keep the animales away too.

3. Water your plants every day. Since they are potted plants they will need a little extra water. So...soak em good! If your leaves start to turn yellow that means you need to cut back on the H2O.

4. If you are not sure on any of the above or have questions just ask your local head Gardner. Each hardware store and grocery store should have a head Gardner on staff to provide you with the answers to your questions.

Growing a garden will teach your kids patients and how to take care of something. It will also get them outside and they will enjoy seeing something grow!
