This year we added our Kids Booth, my husband and I started this last fall at the Reading Council's Readers Walk and decided it would be a good thing to continue with the Master Gardeners. We read garden themed books to the kids, plant seeds and tell them a little about how seeds and plants grow! THEY LOVE IT!!! At this age they just soak everything in like sponges.
You can tell this Master Gardener is a retired teacher, she has such a great way with the kids and they love her!!!
We had a great crowd of kids all day. They would come and plant a seed than get a cup of lemonade and sit down and listen to a story. We planted around 130 seeds that day and gave away kits on how to make grass head people...
Even the parents loved it...
Another wonderful retired teacher, look how cute this little one is sitting on the straw so interested in this story with his lemonade... We really need to get the kids back outside, gardening,playing and just having fun! Get them away from the TV's and video games!!! They are missing so much!
Have a Great Weekend!!!
