Encourage your seedlings to become gardeners with seeds for kids
There are a whole host of reasons why getting kids into growing from seed is a great idea, from encouraging a love of gardening to giving them a real connection to some of the food that they eat. Here at Seeds By Post (http://www.seedsbypost.co.uk/) we make it simple to encourage your little seedlings to get into gardening or into growing their own herbs and vegetables with our range of seeds for kids.
Search for seeds for kids on the Seeds By Post website and you’ll find a huge range of seeds which are ideal for children. Either they are designed and marketed particularly with kids in mind, such as the great ‘Seeds for Little Gardeners’ range from top brand Johnsons and ‘Fun Seeds’ from Mr. Fothergills, or they are flower, vegetable and herb seeds that will appeal especially to children.
When it comes to inspiring children to get into growing seeds there are a wealth of options. You can bring out their green fingers by choosing flower seeds such as sunflower seeds, perhaps encouraging them to see who among their friends can grow the tallest sunflower. Other great flower seeds for kids include Lupin Pink Fairy seeds, perfect for creating a miniature fairy wonderland in the back garden, and Butterfly Blues Cornflower seeds, also from the ‘Fun Seeds’ range and featuring cornflowers as fun ‘Blues’ characters on the packet.
Or perhaps you’ve picked up on an early love of food and cooking in your child. What better way to make cooking fun than by growing and harvesting your own vegetables to use in dishes as well as sowing herb seeds for use as garnish. Choose from Cool Carrots from the ‘Seeds for Little Gardeners’ range or Easy Grow Baby Pumpkin Seeds. There are Sprouting Lentil, Radish and Wheatgrass seeds and exotic Chinese Pak Choi seeds – in fact all manner of tempting herb and vegetable seeds which are easy to grow and maintain, perfect for the young gardener.
Even if your child has no interest in gardening or cooking, we bet they’ll find it fun to create their own mini garden full of weird and wonderful things. How about inedible Gruesome Gourds and Spooky Faces (every day gourds and pumpkins to you and me!)? The only limit is the imagination when it comes to our very popular range of seeds for kids.
