My kids particularly my son grabbed a seed at the store, a pumpkin seed because according to him he will plant them but unfortunately my husband ended up planting it. I should show this activity to my kids, I'm sure they will love it.

Definitely a great activity for the kids this summer. They can be creative and use whatever toys they want to put inside.
This is one of the gardening projects we did this year that we truly enjoyed a lot. This is really a whole lot of fun and engaging for the kids.
Oh, my daughter would love to make one of these!

This is a great project. I'm a few years away from doing some projects like this with my son, he's just too young. But I am bookmarking this for the future! Thanks for sharing!
