A Great Thing to do with Kids: Plant Tomatoes

Posted by drozzell on March 24, 2009

In California where I live, the weather is getting warmer and we can start to think about getting our gardens going. So, this weekend, my 6 year-old daughter and I went out to buy some tomato seedlings and then planted them in our garden. We didn’t so anything fancy here. We just transferred the plants into holes that we dug, partially filled with rich potting soil, then watered them. The whole process took maybe 30 minutes, but in a few months when we get to eat the product of these plants, those tomotoes will be extra special.
