Built a raised garden bed with 6yo and it's actually growing stuff
So last weekend I decided to finally do something with that corner of the backyard that's just been dead grass. Grabbed my 6-year-old, some 2x8 boards, and we dug a bed together. Kid was OBSESSED with the digging part—got dirt everywhere, in her hair, under her nails, didn't care.
Fast forward 2 weeks and we've got actual lettuce sprouting. She checks on it literally every morning before school now. Worth every penny of the $40 in supplies. Highly recommend if your kids are into instant gratification lol. We're planning tomatoes next.
This is the stuff right here. He's literally watching something he and you made produce food. That's wild for a 6yo. How long before he's wanting to plant something next spring?
