Planting Season

It must be spring.... time is flying!

It's that time of year, friends, SPRING. Seed planing, starting lawn mowers, walks to the park. It's spring.

I spent Monday with my B&G Club class planting the seeds they ordered a few weeks back.  It was crazy, again, but so fun.  There were kids and seeds and soil everywhere.  But I think everything went into its own flat complete with label on our designated bench.  Now the anticipation for next Monday has set in.  It has been a beautiful week, I can only imagine how many babies we will see.  The best part is that I get to see the excitement on the kids' faces as they find out that the seeds they picked out and planted are actually growing.  It is going to be magnificent.

But this doesn't have to happen only in a greenhouse.  Get out your seeds and have your kids help!  Next Thursday is Earth Day and I plan on bringing along my left over zinnia seeds for the little kiddos at work because the excitement and anticipation can happen at home ( at work if you nanny! )

Give the kids their own pot, round up a little soil, and spare seeds and let them go crazy.  Let them get dirty, put in too many seeds, and get ready for the excitement.  They will love it. And they will be so proud!
