Warmer weather is right around the corner and you may be wondering how to include your preschooler into gardening this year.\u00a0 Below are a few tips on how to garden with your preschooler.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Prepare<\/span><\/h4>\n

Do some research and find types of plants which will be easier to grow and will thrive in your area.\u00a0 Decide where your garden will grow best based on the plants you have chosen.\u00a0 Soften the soil, so your preschooler can easily help dig without becoming frustrated.\u00a0 You will want to have a way to mark your rows, so the plants do not accidentally get trampled.\u00a0 This <\/span>blog <\/span><\/a>suggests creating walking paths using bark, so your preschooler knows where to walk and where to watch for tiny plants when helping or playing in the garden.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Plan<\/span><\/h4>\n

Yes, you did some planning in the preparation step above, but now is your preschooler\u2019s chance to help plan.\u00a0 Ask your preschooler which fruits or vegetables she wants to grow and help her choose seeds or seedlings.\u00a0 Incorporate some reading into this venture by checking out gardening books from the library.\u00a0 Your preschooler will love reading about the process and how plants grow, as well as gain ideas of what types of plants she may want to grow.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Include<\/span><\/h4>\n

Gardening with your preschooler may be a bit overwhelming, but keep in mind he is learning and wants to help.\u00a0 Find jobs of importance in the garden for him to do on his own.\u00a0 Remember that it is ok if he picks the peppers before they are fully ripe or over waters the beans.\u00a0 He is learning self-control and self-regulation through these activities.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Enjoy<\/span><\/h4>\n

As time to harvest nears, involve your preschooler in finding recipes in which to enjoy your home grown produce.\u00a0 He is sure to love helping find the ripe produce and helping prepare them for mealtime.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Enjoy the time gardening with your preschooler and create memories that will last a lifetime.\u00a0 Your garden may only last one season, but the skills and memories you are helping your preschooler build will last a lifetime.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
