So, we spent about an hour this past weekend finally planting all the plants we picked up at Glick’s Greenhouse over a week before. Two of the neighborhood girls showed up and helped my daughter plant her bed. Actually, who are we kidding? They did the planting while she told them what to do. That’s my daughter!
As I labeled the photos with plant names, I realized that the beds are so revealing of my kids’ personalities. My 9 year old who loves to cook thought about vegetables and herbs for his cooking. The 7 year old who’s very fond of tulips and flowers included them in his bed. My daughter got some one else to plant her flowers for her. And, the 5 year old very carefully planted his beans onions, and left Mom to help him with the rest. He did come back and water everything.

Great! Can’t wait to see it!
Awe I love that you include your kids when planting the garden. I would love to know how your arugala turns out, because mine is out of hand! I need some fresh ideas on how to prepare it! Great photos!

How about arugula pesto? I love tossing arugula into my salads.
Too cute! I can’t wait to watch it all come together for them.
I just adore how each child gets their own garden to plant as they choose! Great way to allow their personalities to shine
Found you at Teach Me Tuesdays, and I’ll be back!
