Gardening<\/strong> can be a fun way to grow your relationship with your toddler! Whether planting in the ground or in pots, giving your child a way to learn a ton of vocabulary and to follow directions while getting messy can be so much fun. They won\u2019t even know they are learning! Whatever you choose to plant, tell your child what it is you are planting and what you are doing. For example, \u201c Let\u2019s plant the beans!\u201d  \u201cHere are the seeds.\u201d \u201cWe need to use a shovel to dig a small hole.\u201d \u201cDig, dig, dig!\u201d \u201cPut the seeds in the hole.\u201d \u201cThen cover up the seeds with the dirt.\u201d \u201cNow we need to water them.\u201d \u201cPour!\u201d \u201cThe sun will help them grow too!\u201d. Take turns with the tasks and use phrases \u201cMy turn\u201d and \u201cYour turn\u201d as you do.  Ask them what they need so they can request the materials(Seed please, More dirt, I want shovel, I need water, etc.).  As they watch them grow, they will know they helped and maybe(if you plant vegetables or fruit)eat what they planted and nourished!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
