Why not give you a place to see and explore the wonderful posts that I was discovering I thought? Five amazing Kid Blogger Network bloggers agreed to join me in sharing not only their gardening themed posts, but those created by others.
You will find that some of the posts are actually about gardening projects while others are activities, crafts, food creations and more that have a garden theme. If you have posts with a gardening theme for children I hope you will link them up below and add the Dig Into Gardening badge.
Mother’s Day Plant Idea – M.O.M. Herb Container Garden
We didn’t need to look for very long before we found the area to dig into. The herb section actually had five or six kinds of mint sitting right next to a pot of oregano that was right next to some marjoram. It was like they were placed right there just for us.
It was hard to decide which variety of mint to select. We ended up having to decide between an orange mint and a chocolate mint.We ended heading home with a pot of marjoram, a pot of oregano and a pot of chocolate mint. The car smelled wonderful.
Unfortunately it rained all weekend. We ended up having to transplant our herbs in the garage. I am so glad we had the space in the garage to work on this project.

It’s the end of our outside gardening season here with the first bad frosts this week… but I think we might plant one of these for our window sill! Thanks for the inspiration and the opportunity to link 🙂

What a great Mother’s Day gift idea! So much better than flowers that will die within a week.

I’ve never heard of chocolate mint!
I love the idea of finding herbs to match the letters in the word “mom” — such a cute gift!

This is such a cool idea; I can’t wait to add it to my agenda to do with Kara (my 1 year old) in the upcoming months! She already ADORES dirt, and loves “putting” things where I tell her to. I’m so excited about it! I just created my new blog and my first real post was 24-Mothers Day Gifts that don’t Break the Bank! I shared this, and wanted to let you know in case you need any additional kind of credit/linking.

My mom loved it too. We had the best time picking out herbs for the container.
