Indoor Gardening Fun

If fall weather has hit your area, then no doubt as a gardener you'll feel it. While some gardeners keep gardening all year long, gardening indoors , most probably just quit until the weather warms up the next spring. For those kids gardeners, it's probably the worst time. They get bored to tears without their gardens.

Perhaps you can play a few garden games or even start an indoor herb garden. Check out some places my kid gardeners and I go to to pass the time.

  • The Flower Garden Game - Since I homeschool, this is an awesome fun game especially for my youngest ones. Plant your flower garden and learn math and critical thinking skills at the same time.

  • Park Seed Company- Not a game but it is fun to make a list of things you'd like to plant next year. Park Seed has gift certificates that are perfect gifts for gardeners for Christmas and other upcoming holidays.

  • Bloomin Gardens - Some of these games aren't just for learning, they're for fun!

  • Check out other home and garden information at Garden and Hearth. There's always something there no matter what season you're in.

Happy indoor, winter gardening or here's to hoping for the spring. Happy holidays too!

Katina, thanks for using our Park Seed catalog as a "wish book"! Another good rainy-day use for old mail-order gardening catalogs is to cut out the pictures and decoupage them onto a small container. You can make a colorful "blooming" pencil holder as a holiday gift and brighten the desk of a house-bound gardener during the winter.

I've kept older garden catalogs around just so my kids could have pictures to cut out for collages. I also love to go through them especially when I need inspiration or something to cheer me up on cold winter days.
