It is true that kids love to garden and to watch stuff grow. That’s why most kids would love a Plantarium kit so they can watch a seed turn into a sprout.

The Plantarium Gel Garden kits and the Plantarium Gel Tube Grow sold at Mastermind Toys include the clear containers, the clear growing gel (derived from NASA experiments on space shuttles) and the seeds.

Seeds planted in April will be ready to transfer to the garden for the long weekend in May.

Or you can just use the old-fashioned way and have the kids put your seeds into sprouting pots now so they can transfer them when you have your garden bed ready. Gardening is always fun for the whole family and a way to enjoy the outdoors.

What did you and your kids plant? Which methods did you use?
