Gardening teaches children to better appreciate nature and to respect their environment. You’ll be arousing their interest in what could prove to be a life-long hobby and an important life-skill – one that is often overlooked in standard school curriculums. Gardening:
- Encourages children to explore the outdoors and develop a connection with the natural world
- Promotes creativity and self-discipline
- Introduces children to what it means to be self-sufficient
- Promotes making good food choices
- Allows children to personally observe the cycle of life
