The ultimate way to introduce children to growing vegetables

If you’re keen for your children to learn more about gardening but don’t have the outdoor space, there are still ways they can do so whilst learning about where food comes from.

Growing cress seeds is one of the simplest ways to introduce the concept of growing from seed to young children, plus it’s ideal if you lack outdoor space. Clockwork Soldier’s pop-up Mini Gardens are a fab upgrade from the old yogurt pot and give an additional play dimension to growing cress. The cress is set within a fun miniature 3D play scene, which contains movable characters based on a Jungle, Fairy or Dinosaur theme. These mini gardens are the perfect way to introduce little ones to growing veggies and greens, and make a fun and eco-friendly gift for gardening whatever the season. Mini Gardens are available at mini green fingers from £7.50. Visit minigreenfingers.com
