Happy Summer! Would you like to encourage more beneficial local insects into your garden? Let’s make Seed Spheres to scatter and grow in the garden or gift them to a friend who shares your passion for gardening! These little bundles of seeds not only enhance the beauty of your outdoor space but also attract essential pollinators that play a crucial role in maintaining the ecosystem. Plus, while you enjoy your time outdoors, you can make a mini garden book blooming with fun activities, perfect for engaging children or even adults who want to rekindle their love for nature. These activities were created to work beautifully with the picture book Rooftop Garden by Danna Smith and Pati Aguilera, inspiring readers to cultivate their green thumbs. Embrace the joy of summer by creating a vibrant garden sanctuary that benefits both you and the local wildlife!
About the Book
A ROOFTOP GARDEN IS WHAT WE NEED! A group of city friends work diligently together to grow herbs and vegetables in a rooftop garden. Set to a foot-tappin’ original tune, this rhythmic, rhyming story will have kids singing enthusiastically about the six stages of plant growth. The story concludes with a summer harvest and feast that celebrates the gardeners’ commitment. Includes sing-along audio and video animation.
