101 Kid-Friendly Plants

Turn time in the garden into hands-on family fun with 101 Kid-Friendly Plants, a playful and practical guide by Cindy Krezel. Designed to help children connect with nature, this engaging book introduces plants that are safe, easy to grow, and full of personality- from soft, touchable leaves to flowers that move, smell, or even surprise. Kids will love interacting with favorites like snapdragons that “snap,” velvety lamb’s ear, and the fascinating sensitive plant that folds when touched. Beyond plant selection, the book features 17 creative garden projects that turn learning into an experience. Families can plant a butterfly garden to attract pollinators, grow a “pizza garden” with edible ingredients, design a whimsical fairy garden, or create a sensory space filled with textures and scents.
