Spring has arrived in our garden. Every day new life is emerging and the children want to be outside all the time! It’s a great time of the year. We planted tomatoes, peas, beans, lettuce, sunflowers, and sweet peas in March, just before the Easter holidays, and they have all germinated. Today, the children transplanted them into larger pots. It will be wonderful to see them grow.
We walked around the garden today and looked at the blossom on the fruit trees, We stood and watched bees flitting from blossom to blossom transporting pollen and being rewarded with nectar. Soon we will see the blossom turn to fruit. The garden is alive with insects and the children are besotted with them! Daisies and dandelions are everywhere and they love these wildflowers!! We will make daisy chains and they love blowing the dandelion heads! Simple fun but the best days! The little creatures in the garden are their best friends and they have such respect for them.
It’s wonderful to be outdoors and share nature with these eager and enthusiastic children. Great adventures await!
