When selecting a plant for the garden, it is easiest to have them choose from a general group of plants. You may want to ask them to pick flowers or plants with bright colors because this is what they tend to like. Types of vivid flowers that children would enjoy include zinnias and cosmos. They can likewise be overwhelmed by tall and fuzzy, so remember to have sunflowers. You also want to be sure the plants they decide do not trigger allergic reactions. Kids might help right away by planting seeds. At the very least, they can just simply handle the soil. To help keep their excitement high, make them monitor their gardening experiences in a journal. They'll be able to use their creativity to sketch out what they imagine their plants will look like.
