A group of diverse young children shares their experience growing fruits and vegetables in the garden from seed to sprout to harvest. They clear the land, plant seeds, and tour readers around abundant crops while explaining how different plants grow. This story is a fascinating educational exploration of plant life that celebrates teamwork, cooperation, and the boundless possibilities that bloom in a garden nurtured by youthful enthusiasm. Expand on this book with teachable moments, simple gardening terminology, and opportunities to mimic and move. What a great scientific experience for introducing children to the beneficial process of working the land and reaping the rewards. Teaching children where food comes from effectively gives them control over their diet and promotes healthy eating. Plant something that helps children grow.
A garden is where young children can observe natural changes and use their senses to investigate the world. Readers also enjoy searching for hidden insects on the pages. The use of a magnifying glass is recommended.
