Spring is a great time to get your children outdoors for a variety of activities. Gardening can help teach them care, patience, and about the environment, making it a great learning experience. Below, we’ve listed a few ideas for child-friendly gardening activities to get your kids’ hands dirty this spring.

Herb Terrarium – Terrariums are a really popular decoration at the moment. Whether it’s real or fake, you’re sure to see one decorating a friend’s home or the café around the corner. Terrariums make a great vessel for growing homemade herbs. With a few simple items you could find around the house and the herbs you want to plant, you can create attractive, fresh herb plants in under an hour. These have an added bonus of giving you some yummy cooking ingredients that you and your child can use in a recipe later on!

Garden in a Glove – Using a clear plastic glove, kids can plant different seeds and watch them grow! Preparation time is minimal, kids can pick the seeds and use different varieties for each finger, and in a matter of days they’ll be able to watch and the seeds begin to sprout. This is a great way to teach kids about the process of germination. In addition, to make this super eco-friendly (and to glam it up a bit) you can use a clear glass container as the vessel.

It’s been proven that children with high-quality early education have a tendency to perform better in social situations and develop more advanced math and language skills. This leads to better results in school and higher wages earned when they’re adults! For these reasons, it can be incredibly influential to take advantage of the early years of brain development in order to prepare your child for the future.

By choosing an early learning center that is nurturing, caring, and allows individual expression your child we be sure to succeed. Our eco-friendly childcare center started with a few kids in our home center.
