Herb Bouquets

We had a fun-filled day in the garden today. Here's what we were up to:

A Visitor to Our Garden!

Garden Activity:
The students helped plant sweet peas along the chain link fence in order to "beautify" the garden a bit.

We cleaned up our "Digging" section of the garden and looked for buried fossils. Unfortunately, we didn't find any (I'll have to hid some before class next week...Shhhh!).

Activity Theme: All about Herbs
We picked herbs from our Herb Garden Bed and bundled them with a bow for the kids to take home with a label of which herbs were included. Most kids took home: Sage, Tarragon, Lavendar, Rosemary, and Thyme. The bouquets smelled so good.

We also did a color hunt. The kids worked together in groups of three to find items in the garden that matched earth-toned paint swatches they were given. They had fun trying to find the perfect match.

Thank you Jan Schrieber (aka Quinn's mom) for snacks!
