Gardening for Kids | Activities for kids during 21 days lockdown

Let's start. So today is the day one of 21 days of grow with lazy Whenever I think of something for kids, this is one thing that stands out to me so in my memory, I think this is one of the earliest when I started growing and I remember this is with onion. So I have an onion here. It's so easy Yet so fascinating on my own after realizing what's happening I transferred the onion to soil and that's the only onion I think in my life that I have taken to flowering It flowers and then it gets that kalonji, the black seeds and it's amazing experience so that's the Reason why I want to Start with this anyone who has kids and even if you don't have kids You'll find it extremely interesting and insightful So take any bottle. I would recommend bottle. I don't have bottles right now but just take a bottle and what you need to do is So We need to put water Just touching the bottom and it doesn't matter whether it has any roots right now or not Right, and we need to just put it like this here Now if you have a bottle, that's where the bottle comes in handy because the neck would be small So if the neck is small this can just stay there and it's like a simple easy thing for a kid Right. All they need to do is whenever the water level goes down just fill it back. Nothing else But if you have something like this, right Because we might have anything and we have to work with that And so if you have something like this don't use nails use toothpicks again I don't have toothpicks. So I'm like we just Push this in. Okay three three of these Can you see this? Okay Now it looks stable, right? So now just touching that we need to fill the water Working with very limited resources here again, as I said, I don't have bottles. So I'm using this. That's it That's enough. I'll just show you just so that you get a clear idea This is the kind of touching we are talking about. That's it. And This is an excellent thing. I think it's a very easy thing to do but for a kid I mean and when I say kid, so this is one thing that Manoj was asking me today What do you mean kid when you say kid? So I was saying anyone till 6th class, 5th class, 6th class anyone who has not done this Find it extremely in amazing and one thing to Really why this excites me is because of the root growth the top in general even when it's in soil You see right, but the root growth is something that goes missing. So this is one exercise for your kids. It's amazing. So I Hope if you have this you're doing it if you're not have this but note it down do it with your kid And if you have two kids three kids, just ask them to write a name and put it at their own place And it's amazing. Right and do do this We come back to this one week from now for another exercise after this plant goes big for the kids again, right? So so this is the thing that you keep giving We do another exercise in one week then another one in another one week So this is a great start and so I have talked through certain way these exercises so
