My Project

We throw an annual garden party in preschool to celebrate the learning on planting and gardening we have just completed. The children have learned so much by the unit's end of planting and growing that they want to share with their families all that they have learned. They have learned about what plants need, who lives in gardens, they've gotten to plant their own plants and they have created a life-size garden mural to be the backdrop to the day's fun!

Turnip the music at this garden party!

We are planning some great activities all about planting and growing and we need your help in securing some materials for the best gardening party we can plan!
