Invest in a Good Wheelbarrow
Not only will kids enjoy pushing around the wheelbarrow, but generally, the natural soil isn’t good enough to plant in. This means that the kids will need to transport different types of soil. A wheelbarrow is the easiest and most fun way for kids to do this.
Use Colorful Plants
Kids love bright colors. Choose plants with a variety of colors, rather than selecting only one or two colors. This will make the gardening more fun for the kids.
Choose Simple to Grow Plants
Not all plants are easy to grow. Kids get excited to see their gardening results. Choosing plants that are simple to grow will help increase the odds of favorable results.
Choose Native Plants
This goes along with the last point. By selecting plants that are native to your area, this can make the plants easier for kids to grow.
Create a Maintenance Schedule
Creating a schedule of when to feed and water plants can help kids keep track of what needs to be done in the garden. I suggest hanging it near their chore chart if they have one.
