The garden is an engaging, stimulating, and — most importantly — fun learning environment for preschool children. Written for early childhood educators, this new book features 16 thoughtful, hands-on activities centered around 4 key questions: What is a plant? Where do plants come from? How do we take care of plants? Why are plants important?
Each chapter includes horticultural teacher background information, interdisciplinary extension ideas, and a reproducible "family newsletter" describing an activity to complete at home. Equally suited for educators who are new to gardening and those who are experienced green thumbs, these inspired lessons will let you and your young students embark on a wonderful garden learning adventure. 96 pages. Preschool.
 What customers are saying about this product:
I especially appreciate the "layers" in each chapter and lesson — the Preparation, Laying the Groundwork, Exploration, Digging Deeper, and Branching Out, and the At Home newsletter. Your suggestion to "start small" is a good one and Garden Adventures breaks it down in a way that teachers will be able to do that.
