Fun Plants For Children To Grow In The Garden

1/22/2017

 
Gardening is an interesting and stimulating springtime activity which is suitable for both adults and children. Planting kid-friendly vegetables, flowers, and fruits will let kids control their own plants from an early age. 

 Also, parents will have the opportunity to relax and watch as their kids take on an opportunity of developing as well as sustaining life.

Allow the kids to play the role of a helper in planning out the garden, starting from where plants will be and what should be planted. Guide kids through the planning stage of the garden to then give them a lesson in responsibility. Immediately the garden planning and layouts are ready, allow the kids to pick out bulb, seeds, and plants from the local nursery. Below are some varieties of plants that kids can grow easily;

•    Sunflowers
Both adults and kids will love this flower’s height. There are many types of sunflowers, which range from the really tall “Mammoth” to the teenier “Teddy Bear.” Irrespective of the variety, lots of sunflowers can grow up to eight feet, and their flower heads are up to 6 inches wide. These flowers are fun to stare at, and they provide environmental and health benefits; sunflowers make seeds that can be consumed by both animals and humans. The sunflower can show kids the power of cultivating their food and helping in sustaining the environment around them.
The 2014 Farmer’s Almanac reports that the best time of year to plant a sunflower seed is in the summer. These plants are also quite easy to care for. Providing you give them lots of room to grow with the occasional watering, kids will be able to take care and watch as the flower grows above their heads within a short time.

•    Marigolds
These plants are stapled flowers that grow all year round and are relatively easy to grow. They will dazzle a backyard with hues of yellows and deep oranges and will remain bright and blossom for the entire summer. Marigolds give kids instant gratification; they start to bloom within just a few weeks planting. They can also be planted anywhere providing there are soil and sunshine and require little care.
These flowers bloom during summer, spring, and fall, and can grow indoors. If you’re searching for a fun family activity to do during the winter, planting marigolds on your indoor window sill will help get kids ready to start their own garden during the spring.

•    Pansies
Pansies are one of the most effortlessly recognizable flowers in the globe. Known for their broad range of colors, children will have fun picking and selecting which colors will fit into the garden. Pansies may require more care than sunflowers and marigolds; they must often be watered so that they don’t wilt.
