Product Description
Make leaf rubbings, learn the neighborhood bird songs together, turn an aquarium into a worm hotel, make a firefly hurricane lantern. There are garden projects, both for the outdoors—grow a container snacking garden, a pumpkin patch in a pot—and the indoors, i.e., how to use something called “inside garbage gardens” to grow pineapple tops, sweet potato vines, peanuts, and more. Cooking projects, both in the sunshine—baking in a solar oven—and in the kitchen—what child will ever forget the time the two of you made Potato Volcanoes with Lava? And lots of rainy-day activities for times when scenery’s in a cranky mood.
Made by Sharon Lovejoy—a grandmother of four and the leader of two classic books of garden activities for grown-ups and kids, Sunflower Houses and Roots, Shoots, Buckets & Boots—Toad Cottages and Shooting Stars is an cost-effectively inspired guide that combines more than 130 green activities with timeless grandparenting advice. Illustrated with Lovejoy’s distinctive, delicate watercolors, it’s an inventive resource for grandmother and grandchild to connect with each additional through scenery. It is the book to make sure an afternoon, a day, or a weekend turns into a memory that lasts forever.

Bought a first copy of this book for myself, and my children’s active grandmother fell in like! She establish so many sweet and simple thoughts that kept my 3-year-ancient son busy outdoors with her for her entire visit. The book is wonderfully written, with gorgeous photos, highly appealing layout, so fun to browse through. It also helped me save the tomatoes I’d overly-ambitiously (with new baby at home, that is) ongoing indoors
Loving this publisher. Have just bought another copy for myself, and 2 more for gifts for friends.

This is a lot of fun to look through. It may require more time and patience than some have, but if you could even do half these things with the grandkids it would be a success!
