Green fingers and big smiles: gardening with your child

Gardening with your child!

Small hands in the earth, surprised eyes when seeing a germinating seed and enjoying the first flowers together ... Gardening with your little one is so much more than a fun activity. It is an adventure full of discovering, growing and making beautiful memories together.

Why gardening with your child?

Gardening is a magical way to spend time together. It teaches you about nature, patience and care. Moreover, it stimulates the senses: feeling the earth, smell herbs and listening to the buzzing of bees. And the best? It always ends with a proud moment when the first leaves are embraced above the ground!

A mini-vegetable garden for small discoverers

You don't need a large garden to start. A few pots on the balcony or a small piece in the garden is enough! Easily start with easy plants such as: strawberries, forget-me-nots and sun flowers. Let your little one choose and take care of your own plant. With a small watering can and a child -friendly scoop, gardening becomes a party!

Taking care of and wondering together

Taking a look at the plants every day makes gardening extra fun. “Do you see that blade? That was even smaller yesterday! ” Giving water together and viewing leaves not only reinforces the bond with nature, but also your band together.
