What's better than getting your hands dirty by planting flowers and veggies that your family can enjoy all Summer long? Getting your kids in on the garden action, too! Not only is gardening a great way to get your kids out of the house and away from those pesky screens, but it also teaches them responsibility (plants have to be tended, after all) and about the magic of nature, where a tiny seed can become a giant pumpkin, a beautiful flower, or a crop of cherry tomatoes. How cool is that?!
Start your child's gardening journey with one of the following 20 items, from kid-size garden tools, wheelbarrows, and greenhouses to creative ways to add some kid fun to your green space (fairy houses and butterfly posts are sure to pique their interest). If you're a garden novice yourself, try a growing kit designed for kids, and you'll both learn how to make your garden flourish.
