Most town people like myself might think that winter in Iowa means it's time to put up all the gardening gear until next spring, right? Wrong! This winter I will be busy working in my green house to get things ready for spring 2014. Snow does not mean we can not grow! One thing we are enjoying around our home right now is the winter prep. We are cleaning up the garden beds and making fun of it. Plus it's time for pumpkin picking and what kid doesn't love that? Did you know that you can grow pumpkins too? Even in a small space. This year we tried to grow our pumpkins vertically but only produced three pumpkins. But those three good sized pumpkins could be just enough for your little one for carving and some roasted seeds and pie too!
What activities are you doing with your kids right now?
Here are some fun fall-to-winter activities I am enjoying with my kids right now!
Up cycling garden plants to stuff Jack-O-Lantern Leaf Bags
Using twigs to make scare crows
Carving Pumpkins
Making Pumpkin Pies
Roasting Pumpkin Seeds
Exploring squash varieties and eatin em too!
