I have recently volunteered to start a gardening club at the school I work in. It will involve a small group of children between the ages of 9-11. The spot we're allowed to use is a fenced-in area in the middle of the playground (so the other children will be able to see and admire, but not touch!) and we'll have to use containers (the ground is concrete). I'm looking to grow a mix of vegetables and flowers. The requirements are: they have to be relatively easy (I don't want to discourage young gardeners), grow well in containers, and have matured by the end of July (when we break up for the summer).
So...what would you grow? Give me some ideas, please, so I can make this project a success and give the children a good experience.
