Our garden has been constantly changing week by week over time, which is why we have had to stay attentive to our daily tasks of care and observation. Some plants, like the onion and broccoli, are the tallest in the entire garden, as they measure more than two hand spans in height.
To do this, we have created a calendar to note the events taking place in it. There, we record whether any plant has grown compared to the previous week, when it needs watering, when to apply fertilizer, or if any animal has eaten some of the broccoli leaves.
In addition, we are creating a field guide where we document everything that has happened throughout the weeks in much more detail.
We have also realized that the garden is not an easy task, as every day we find something to do. Among these tasks are: watering the plants, removing the pine needles, cleaning the garden area from plastics and papers, controlling the irrigation, and being very careful while working in it.
We have also found many animals living in it, such as worms, snails, lizards, earthworms, birds, ants, pill bugs… That’s why, in our Science sessions, we have also studied which animals live in the garden and which ones feed on it.
Now, our garden is looking more and more beautiful, and some even say it resembles an enchanted forest because of how green and lush it is. So, if you haven’t had the chance to see it yet… what are you waiting for?
