Default new to gardening

hi,

I bought some seeds for my 8 year old daughter to set up a little area in the garden. I got lettuce, cabbage and carrots. The garden is a grass lawn and I dug about 50 cm deep to take the grass away, there are 2 strips about 8ft x 3ft. I just do not want the grass to come back and I was wondering if I need to do something else before I plant the seeds? Also do I need some special soil to use? any ideas, tips, links would be great!
