How Does Your Garden Grow?

Spring is a great time to get your kids involved in activities in the garden, and to introduce them to growing things from seeds.

A few years ago my kids loved the Willow and Wild Box, as it introduced them to growing your own in a fun way. It’s a great way to introduce growing your own fruit and veg for little ones, and you can read our full Willow and Wild review if it’s something. of interest.
