My son Mikey was watching a program on the local PBS station. He watched intently as the character on the screen talked about planting a plant. Then a few days later, he watched one of his favorite shows on Nick Jr. called "Olivia". Olivia, who is a pig, had to plant some mystery seeds. After that, Mikey wanted to plant something. It didn't matter to him what it was. His Daddy helped him plant a tomato plant, and so far it is doing well. However, he kept on talking about planting for several days. So Mike and I decided to make a small garden for the boys. Of course, it was more work for Mike than our boys. Mikey and Brian joyfully played in the dirt. Mikey loved picking up worms and bugs and Brian didn't eat any of them. We planted corn, tomatoes, peas, 2 types of beans, peppers, and radishes. Hopefully, everything will grow and Mikey and Brian will get to enjoy the little garden that their Daddy worked so hard to plant. Either way, it has been a wonderful activity for us to do as a family.
