From Flowers to Worms: Understanding Nature's Cycle.
Texas Child Care, v18 n4 p28-31 Spr 1995
Gardening helps children learn how plants sprout, grow, bloom, and then wither away, leaving seeds behind. Participating in this natural process allows children to experience the stages of life. Suggested gardening activities include studying dandelions, focusing on culture for garden plant selection, and constructing a worm box or worm terrarium to study earthworms. (TJQ)
