Exploring Plants with Young Children
This instructional introductory guide for early childhood educators, by Kidsgardening, is centered on four key questions:
- What is a plant?
- Where do plants come from?
- How do we take care of plants?
- Why are plants important?
It includes 16 hands-on activities, horticultural background information, interdisciplinary extension ideas, and a reproducible family newsletter. Whether you're a new or experienced gardener, Garden Adventures will help you use the garden as a teaching tool.
