Garden Crafts

Question My husband and I love to garden and we are about to get into our busy time of year. We always let the kids help plant the seeds, but do you know of any garden crafts that will get them interested in gardening?

Answer As you probably have discovered, what kids like most about gardening isn't the watering, fertilizing, and the other chores that demand regular attention, but the garden's magic: how you can stick a tiny seed into the ground and end up with a 10-foot sunflower. So if you want to grow a young gardener, get them involved in a fun garden project, such as crafting a stepping stone for the garden path, growing a cucumber in a bottle or sprucing up the garden beds with painted pebbles.
