Gardening toddlers!

[Rabidbun]

First year since he's passed the "pulling up the plants to see the legs" stage and mine is now in the "cut all plants with scissors to harvest the leaves" stage.

On the plus side he didn't mash the plants I got him from the garden centre too much and I was only mildly evil - I went back later and buried the plants he had planted properly to hide the roots and stop them keeling over, but left them all where he planted them to grow. Considering that I am slightly neurotic about the garden, not bad for me!

Soooo, all those with toddlers, what have yours done in/to the garden? Good and bad! :

pulled up my courgette to move the pot across.
Generally throwing my seedling pots across the grass.

I often have Bean in my arm when I decide to dead head the hanging baskets. I lean him in close so he can smell the flowers (violas and pansies it the back, petunia and lobelia at the front). Of course, copying me he reaches for the flowers and 'dead heads' the good ones.

Then eats them.

My grandaughter, much like Heywayne's Bean, followed me into the greenhouse when I was harvesting tomatoes and with a swift "here's some grampy" picked a couple of Aubergines that I had been nurturing, the only two fruits I was likely to get last year..

My wee one carefully kisses any sizable seeds before popping them into the hole Unfortunately she also runs up to me with any flower heads telling me it's a "pretty flower".......Well, it was!
