Gardening ideas with toddlers

Gardening is a great way to get young children interested in nature and help them develop important skills like patience, responsibility, and observation. By involving your toddler in the gardening process, you can help them learn about the world around them and have fun at the same time. Here are some gardening ideas for toddlers to enjoy.

  1. Planting seeds. Planting seeds is a great way to teach toddlers about the process of growing plants. Choose a variety of seeds that are easy to grow, such as sunflowers or beans, and provide your toddler with a small pot or container filled with soil. Show them how to make a hole in the soil, drop in a seed, and cover it up. Let your toddler water the pot and place it in a sunny spot. Watching the seeds sprout and grow will be a fun and exciting experience for your toddler.
  2. Sensory garden. Creating a sensory garden is a great way to engage your toddler’s senses and introduce them to different textures and smells. Use a large container or raised bed to plant a variety of plants with different textures, such as lamb’s ear, rosemary, and lavender. Encourage your toddler to touch and smell each plant, and talk to them about the different sensations they experience.
  3. Garden art. Garden art is a fun and creative way to decorate your garden and get your toddler involved in the process. Use non-toxic paint to decorate small stones or pots, or create a garden sculpture using recycled materials like old toys or broken dishes. Let your toddler help with the design and creation process, and display their artwork in the garden for all to see.
  4. Bug hunting. Toddlers love exploring and discovering new things, so why not encourage them to go on a bug hunt in the garden? Provide them with a small magnifying glass and a bug jar, and encourage them to search for insects like ladybugs, butterflies, and bees. Talk to them about the different insects they find and the important role they play in the garden ecosystem.
  5. Watering. Watering the garden is a great way to teach toddlers about responsibility and the importance of caring for living things. Provide them with a small watering can and show them how to water the plants gently. Encourage them to check the soil moisture level regularly and water the plants when needed.

In conclusion, gardening with toddlers can be a fun and educational experience for both you and your child. By providing them with opportunities to plant seeds, explore the garden, create art, and care for living things, you can help them develop important skills and a love for nature that will last a lifetime. So grab some soil, seeds, and a watering can, and start gardening with your toddler today!

I have such a black thumb. Finally with my growum kit we’ve been able to grow herbs. My 5 year old enjoys watching the instructional videos. We love growum!

Easy to use & child friendly. Can’t wait to eat the salad we’re going to grow in our own backyard! We absolutely love the Growums and highly suggested them to anyone. They would even be great for adults living in a city without access to a large garden.
