Miniature gardening is a great way to introduce kids to this activity, especially if you don't have any land for them to dig in. I'm going to show you two mini gardens I made along with the steps to their creation.

Kid's gardening projects have to be fast and fun to hold their attention. With miniature gardening, we're talking instant gratification. They can choose a theme for their mini masterpiece to be (or no theme is fine too) and then shop around or scavenge through the garage to find the accessories and accents. After it is made, they can maintain it and the project lives on. Not only to they get to dig a bit in the dirt but they learn how to keep it going and growing.

I grew up on a small farm in Litchfield County, Connecticut with lots of acres, a greenhouse and both flower and vegetable gardens. My dad started most of our crops by seed and I was soon helping out in the garden at age 3. For me, gardening was and still is a way of life but many kids don't grow up this way. It's such a great activity because it teaches them how to respect the earth, imparts a love for nature, gets them outdoors and active, gives a glimpse of how everything works together in our ecosystem and most of all, shows that food does not grow in freezers of supermarkets.

There is a blog post with tips & photos, also entitled "Miniature Gardening For Kids", to go along with this video. Please check it out at: [ Ссылка ]
