Herb garden kits for Mothers Day! What a tasty way to tell mom how much you love her!
Herb garden kits need several days of preparation.
Well before ask your dad or another adult to help you get the following items by taking you to a plant nursery.
Kids should pay for these items from money earned or saved up from their allowance. It makes a better gift when you have paid for it yourself.
Or, better yet, if you have the time, in paper cups and sprout them yourself.
Make sure not to let mom know. Make this a wonderful Mothers Day surprise!
Here's what the kids used to make an for mom on Mothers Day.
Inexpensive pots of herbs that are suitable to be replanted in hanging baskets--chives, coriander, parsley, oregano, rosemary, and thyme are good choices.
Look for small plants, they work best.
Plastic or wire hanging baskets.
Potting soil.
Here's how to make your gift that will keep on giving--just like your mom does.
Fill a hanging basket with potting soil and transplant the herbs in it and give them a little water.
Put the basket in a box with a or letter you have written and tie everything up with a bow and present it to your mom.
After Mothers Day, help mom and dad plant the little herb plants outside and watch them grow.
When someone is cooking a pot of , you can snip off some of the garden fresh herbs and ask mom if you can put them in the pot.
Mmmmmmmmmm, delicious home grown herbs in the sauce! What could make the meal more delightful?
