25 Best Herbs to Grow in Your Kitchen Garden - The Herb Exchange
They will learn that gardening can be fun, but far more than idle play; they are contributing to the family well-being. Besides planting and nurturing their garden beds, be sure they alone do the harvesting and preparation of their crop for the table, no matter how modest the offering.
The care given to sprouting seeds and nurturing the young seedling are a valuable part of the gardening experience. Seeds will need to be started indoors in a warm room and once sprouted they can be transplanted into pots until ready to set out, or they can be placed into a cold frame which is set on top of the garden bed. Not every garden task is pleasant, and the child may not be ready at all times for all chores.
You may need to go out in the evening to pick a few slugs off the lettuce, or be the one to run out and move the sprinkler. If their attention wanes, or the garden tasks become boring, let them build a scarecrow. This activity is still a contribution to the gardening effort and adds another layer of interest to the garden scene. It also reminds the child of the importance of the garden crops. Take a photo of their harvest and send it to the grandparents. The attention given to their work is the best motivator for children to stay involved with a project.

Radishes Radishes bring quick results for the young gardener, germinating in days, and with a very short growing season of days. Snow Peas Snow peas are a quick-growing early crop, and fun for kids to eat right off the vine.
Nasturtiums These flowers are easy to grow and yield results quickly, which encourages the young gardener. Bush Beans Fast, easy, high yield and, because they do not grow tall, they are easy for kids to harvest. Carrots Carrot seeds can be sown directly into soil and prefer cooler temperatures. Other Crops Our Children Have Tried, With Mixed Results: Corn : A heavy feeder, corn needs lots of compost or fertilizer, and requires a lot of growing space in relation to the size of the harvest. In our garden, either the crows got the seedlings, or the plants just never got big enough to yield a good harvest.
Green onions : Easy to grow, but not all that exciting.
Zucchini : Easy, fast, and impressive size, but it takes a good recipe to get children excited about zucchini. Strawberries : Great, but can be a struggle with the predators. Netting the plants from the birds and raccoons, however, was a constant chore which the young children often forgot. Birds became caught in the strawberry netting, which was never fun. Watermelon : Similar to pumpkins to grow, watermelon have to be well grown to be large and tasty. In our experience, the fruit was smaller than expected and not very sweet.
We prefer to give the space to pumpkins. Reuse the Sandbox If your children have grown past their sandbox years, consider converting the old sandbox to a garden bed.
