“Gardening with children can be an incredible experience. They see so many things adults take for granted and miss! Listed is a group of plants that children love watching grow as they care tenderly for the plant to mature—pumpkins, sunflowers, hollyhocks, carrots and poppies are just a few that are recommended. There is a list of theme gardens that look like fun for any age to grow, such as a Pizza Garden planted in the shape of pizza filled with tomatoes, various herbs, onions, peppers and anything else you would ever consider throwing on top of a pizza. The gardening activities to do with children are inventive and unique as well and fun.” —Cynthia, Paulina Springs Books, Sisters, OR.
