Spending time outdoors with your kids can sometimes prove be challenging, especially when it seems that they are more interested in staring at their screens. Yet when you ponder the potentialities of outdoor activity choices, typically gardening is not one that comes to mind. Although a kids garden may need your patience, it could be a surprising way to get outdoors and pave the way to teach your children healthy living skills.
If you truly want to know what you are putting into your body, growing your own fruits and vegetables is the only way to assure quality. Not to mention it is the most nutritious thing you could do for your daily diet. Its unbeatable taste is just one of the many benefits of having your own garden.
Another benefit is the opportunity to teach your kids how to plant and sustain their very own fruits and vegetables. This is an excellent way to connect them with their food source all while being surrounded by nature. Knowing exactly where your food is coming from is also a great way to teach your kids healthy eating habits. It is no secret that concerns have been raised over the pesticides and toxins that can be found on produce at the store.
Needless to say a kids garden would be an enticing way to put them in the driver’s seat and give them complete control over what goes into their bodies.
While watching the garden flourish can be rewarding, there are plenty of other benefits to hours spent planting.
Think of your garden as a blank canvas that is waiting to be painted on by your children. Surrounding your garden with lights is an excellent way to deliver a show stopping glow. Perhaps your kids also have an action figure collection? Using old toys is another great way to get creative with the family. For example, let’s say your kids loved Smurfs characters. You could use the old toys to replicate the Smurf village. Now wouldn’t that be fun!
