Guest guest Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Ah, the " teribble twos " ! I had a small plastic swimming pool that I would set my daughter in with a few buckets of soil and her own little set of plastic gardening tools. When I felt she was past the stage of just getting dirty from the soil, I taught her how to plant seeds in her little colorful pots (dollar stores are great for acquiring such things!) I think because soil and pots weren't " forbidden " , she left the ones in the house alone, lol. We eventually planted that entire plastic pool with flowers, which she delighted in " tending " -I think she was maybe around three at that time. Giving your daughter her own little tools and pots could go a long way towards keeping her out of yours, lol! > > > > > > OH, you have a WONDERFUL opportunity to teach you lil one all about gardening while she is little! Let her HELP you...then she won't be so inclined to be curiolus about the pots! My daughter (now 17) has been " helping " me with my indoor gardening since she was about 2, so your timing is great-take advantage of it! Talk about good bonding time! My most prized moments with my daughter were having her learn to cook and garden along side of me from the time she was big enough to stand on a stool...she was also much more apt to eat the things she helped to grow and cook! > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
