My Project

I am requesting various items like planting pots, plastic cups, flower seeds, grass seeds, and soil. I want to provide my preschool students the opportunity to garden. Students will plant seeds, take care of their plant (water it as needed), and monitor the growth. Students will be learning about the Gardening process and what better way than through a firsthand experience!

Help me provide my preschool students the materials and tools they need to grow flowers and grass, so they could experience the gardening process firsthand.

Gardening helps students learn responsibility, patience, and brings children closer to nature and the earth.
