101 Kid-Friendly Plants: Fun Plants and Projects for the Family by Cindy Krezel Last time I blogged I wrote about gardening books for adults; today I'm going to write about a great book to get you and your kids working with plants. As more of us transition our lives "green" it's a good idea to bring the younger generation along with us and show them the joys, spills, thrills, and the beauty and deliciousness of growing plants. Indoor and outdoor activities are included with special projects such as butterfly gardens, herbs in pots, gardens for cutting flowers as well as an extensive list of plants suitable for children to use. Color photographs extend the use of this book and makes identification and recognition of plants easier for children to learn. Gardening with children reignites the joy of working the earth that most of us experienced as children, rejuvenates us and helps us establish a lasting connection with the earth and our children.
