Composting for Kids
by
Tyesha T
I've wanted to do this for a long time but finally got it started. This is composting on a small scale which works well for us with the kids and our small garden. The kids are so excited about it! Everyday I tell them we have something for the compost bin and they all are wanting to help. It involves teamwork because the cover needs to come off and be put back on and the rug draped back over the top. They take turns dumping the bucket and returning it to the deck by the patio door for me to wash and refill. It won't take long for us to get a good amount in our bin. I do wish we had started in the spring but this will work. It's kind of strange...I'm finding I really enjoy environmental/nature and science activities with the kids. It feels like we're really learning something!
