There are 2 reasons for this post... 1: so I can brag on my little
girl, and 2: to get other people to brag on their kids, too...

My 6 year old daughter has a little garden "all her own"... she started
the seeds, helped plant the seedlings, and she waters them on a
semi-regular basis...


She got to see her first flower in her garden today - one of the
oriental peas flowered - and is already producing a pod... she is so
excited I had to show her a "full grown pea pod" to keep her from
picking and eating it right then... She is very excited!!

My kids don't have their own garden - yet - but are growing grass seed in
egg shells with faces drawn on them. The "egg heads" are a really cute
project, especially for young kids or urbanites with no gardening area and
the grass ends up looking like hair.
