Overview:

A child's introduction to gardening and plant life, to conservation and the management of natural resources. The gardens proposed are real gardens that provide an introduction to productive gardening, but on a small scale, requiring a minimum of resources and upkeep, suitable for patio, balcony or school playground. My World Garden provides a thematic introduction to history and geography via the long interactions between man and plants around the world. The plants tell their story and find a place in 'My World Garden' via the packets of seeds of the four basic cereals of four great civilizations: wheat (Europe), maize (America), rice (Asia) and sorghum (Africa); and a board game where each player searches for plants all over the world and discovers the world's major climate zones. This box contains: A 100-page booklet recounting the adventures of humans and plants around the world, including the birth of the various vegetable kingdoms, major discoveries and the secret journeys of plants; A 36-page activity booklet 'Let's Create the World Garden' presenting 16 gardens from around the world to imitate at home; 4 packets of seeds of the four main cereal crops: wheat, maize, rice and sorghum; a board game where each player searches for plants all over the world, and a cotton bag containing real seeds, which serve as counters for the game. Age 7+.
