Garden Growers


 What You'll Need:
Plant Starters or Egg Carton
Soil
Seeds
Watering Can/or recycled bottle

Ability to with stand getting dirty
REAL dirty!
What a better way to get your kids on board with helping out our planet, than by teaching them how to care for it. We plant vegetables and herbs every year, and both kids love watching the seeds grow, to picking out safe to ear herbs.
Fun Herbs We Like to Eat:
Stevia, Melon Sage, Pineapple Sage, Chives (but wow, the breathe!)


Watering Cans were a HUGE hit this year.
We not only use them to do, just what they are for, water.
But, we also spent a good 30 minute personalizing them with stickers, our name and colors!

Additional Notes:
We originally planted 1 single seed in a glass jar with paper towel. Within days our seeds split and began to sprout. Every morning they would yell and run to their seed and were so excited to see the progress it made.
C'mon now, that's just plain cute!
