In this world of screens, I feel like activities like these are becoming even more important in helping kids learn social, academic, and critical thinking skills!

The hands-on activities and play-based ideas are especially valuable for young children, helping them build confidence while developing important early skills.

I’m glad you were able to find some of what you were looking for. I hope your daughter enjoys the tree printable. Good luck with your strawberry plant! We have a raspberry plant separate from our garden, but still outside. It took a couple years to start producing at all, and even last season I don’t think we ever found more than a handful at a time. However, my kids love it and are excited to get even one homegrown raspberry. :)

Thank you very much for the links to other sites. Both sites have a lot of information and printables. I plan to purchase the miniature trees on Pinay’s site.

The garden idea is awesome. Your husband must have a lot of patience. I plan to start small with strawberries in the house since Abigail loves them. I’m with you on the black thumb attribute. Plus I am concerned about flies and bugs inside my living room. Thank you again for your response and keep up the great work. I’ve already learned a ton so far and purchased the Charlotte Mason and Trish Kuffner(Toddler’s Busy Book) based on your recommendations.

Hi Sherene, I’ve not made any botany-related printables so far, but that would be fun. Living Montessori Now has a great post linking to free material here: http://livingmontessorinow.com/2011/03/31/free-montessori-botany-materials-for-a-gardening-unit/ Also, not all her resources are free, but the Pinay Homeschooler makes lots of great learning material.

As far as a safe, child friendly plant goes, I’m probably not the right person to ask. I have a bit of a black thumb, but we do have a family vegetable garden that my husband is mostly responsible for and my kids help out with. Every year we grow green beans, snap peas, tomatoes, pumpkins, carrots, onions, and lettuce. All of my kids love picking the green beans and snap peas directly off the vine and eating them. My daughter is crazy about tomatoes. Sorry I can’t be more help. Good luck!

Thank you so much for your printables. My daughter is now 14 months and she is obsessed with trees, plant, and flowers. Do you have any botany-related printables?

Also, could you recommend a safe, child friendly plant? What did you choose your children?
