Gardening Books for Children

Gardening, starting a garden, and caring for it, is a wonderful way for children to immerse themselves in the natural world around them and learn first-hand about it. Spending time in the garden provides so many benefits and learning opportunities. The garden is a place of applied science. It’s a place where children can observe directly many natural science concepts, and it gives them practical experience of ideas that sometimes may seem abstract. Gardening is also a great activity to keep kids occupied during the summer months.
