gardening.
GROW A GARDEN AND INSPIRE A CHILD................ RAISED BED
GARDEN KITS are an easy and affordable way to get started.
Youth gardens are becoming very popular all over the
country.
- They help teach a healthy respect for nature and our
environment.
- They motivate and educate kids on fruits and vegetables - and
how to make healthy food choices.
- They provide opportunities for hands-on learning, observation
and team work.
- They promote physical activity and quality outdoor time.
- They teach kids to nurture and care for other living things
while developing patience and a love for God's Green Earth.
- They can give urban children the only
contact with nature they might have.
Gardening
is an exciting and captivating activity for all children. But the
opportunities can be especially beneficial for children with
special needs. Gardening provides "real life" examples and
experiences that encourage learning for children who thrive on practical
instruction. Activities in the garden can be adapted to various skill
levels and allow children to connect with nature in unique and
exceptional ways. Gardening can give children something to be proud of
and build self-esteem.
"Special needs," be it physical, mental, social, emotional, mental
retardation, autism, sensory impairment, learning disabilities, or
physical or mental developmental delays - These children very often
respond incredibly well to a simple garden.
