🌱 Free Live Brainstorm Session: Gardening with Your Child Care Kids—Without the Burnout! 🌼

April 24, 2024 By Suzette Salmon

🌱 Free Live Brainstorm Session: Gardening with Kids—Without the Burnout! 🌼

Hello, wonderful child care providers! Are you looking for fresh, fun ways to engage your kids without stretching yourself too thin? Join me, Sue, for a free live brainstorming session where we’ll dig into the joys of Gardening With kids—stress-free!

👩‍🌾 Why Gardening? Gardening isn’t just about planting seeds or getting dirty—it’s a hands-on way of learning plant cycles, food-to-table techniques, and connecting with nature. Best of all, it can be tailored to fit any schedule and energy level. It’s also science and meets learning standards and developmental domains.

🚀 What Will You Gain?

  • Practical Tips: Learn how to set up a gardening project that’s easy to manage and rewarding for you and the children.
  • Creative Ideas: Discover activities that keep children engaged and excited about nature.
  • Community Support: Share experiences and strategies with fellow home child care providers.

Saturday April 27th, 2024 @ 12pm CST- 1-hour session on Zoom. 

Joining is easy! Sign up via our free download to access exclusive materials and secure your spot in the session. 

✨ Sign Up & Free Download Now

 Spaces are limited to ensure everyone can share and engage meaningfully. Transform how you garden with your little ones!

Let’s grow together without growing tired! 🌟

See you soon – xoxo Miss Sue

Here’s an example of our cleanup process. The bell goes off for lunchtime and the children automatically start singing and cleaning up (I don’t usually sing but they do). Some are singing only for the song while others are busy cleaning up like ‘the  little red hen.’ A beautiful example of when you work alone and the children are your teammates. 
Yes, they’re my little learners and teammates - all hands on deck. We have a wonderful symbiotic relationship harmoniously working together for the good of the environment.
It makes this work enjoyable and it also helps all to learn and appreciate each other - especially when you have a yard this size.

Beautiful slow approach to my early years classroom. I work alone and it’s very important that we all enjoy the space. Children are allowed to move materials, gather, play, learn and then clean up after. 
- A small mixed-age ratio provides many opportunities for discoveries, play and lots of hours outdoors. 
-This was a rainy day, we also harvest rain for their unending play.

Nature gives children something real to think about. Listen to the children - bumblebees and butterflies like nectar too.
