Recycle Your Flowers

                           kids-garden-fun.jpg                  Here’s something that’s fun to do with kids. Dry out the marigold and sunflower seed from the dead plants in your garden. Place them in a glass jar with a lid. Keep them in a cool spot till spring.

In the spring, start new plants by placing in a pot or long-length planter and cover with plastic. The seeds germinate in a few days, once they are large enough you and the kids can plant them in the ground.

This keeps the kids interest because it’s a fairly fast project and teaches them to garden and to  recycle the dead plants for next planting season.  It’s fun, give it a try!

Tip for A Private Space that Holds Kids Interest  

1. Draw a square in the soil

2. Plant an outline of plants that will grow tall and make a private garden room

3. The perfect plant for this is the Sunflower which will give them privacy in their garden room
