Time

• 1 to 2 hours, plus maintenance

Directions

1. Let your child select a designated number of seed packets after you have sketched out a rough layout of the garden together.
2. Check the packet for growing information before making a final selection.
3. Plant each seed packet as directed, mounting the seed packets on sticks in each garden area so you can both identify and compare seedlings as they sprout.
