LET YOUR CHILDREN DISCOVER THE PLEASURES OF THE VEGETABLE GARDEN WITH OUR GARDENING KIT FOR APPRENTICE GARDENERS. 

The complete gardening kit for children, and take their first steps in the vegetable garden, from the age of 3. 

This all-in-one gardening kit includes quality seeds that are easy to grow, educational sheets on how to grow them and all the necessary materials to plant them.

WHAT IS THE APPRENTICE GARDENER KIT?

Our gardening kit for apprentices is a discovery kit, allowing your child to take his first steps in the vegetable garden with ease. By doing an activity in nature with your family, you create a link with nature! We can show our children how vegetables and flowers grow in nature.

AT WHAT AGE CAN IT BE USED?

The apprentice kit is recommended for children between 5 and 10 years old, but is suitable for budding gardeners from the age of 3 years old! For the youngest children, parental guidance is important, especially when reading the advice found on the educational sheets. As for the older children, they can do the activity on their own.

WHAT'S IN THE APPRENTICE GARDENER'S KIT?

Lots of very very nice things! 

• A bag of organic bean seeds of the variety organic dwarf bean maxi fine maxi (8 seeds) (certified by FR-BIO-01), to plant Enrico the Bean, a delicious vegetable and above all, easy to grow!
• A second packet of Organic Radish seeds of the variety Organic Round Radish Raxe (1g)(certified by FR-BIO-01) to plant Rémi le Radis, which grows in a few weeks.
• Two geotextile pots for seedlings, made of 100% recycled and recyclable materials.
• A block of compressed Coco soil, to make 4 liters of soil for planting.
• A small shovel for children, made in France with PEFC wood and steel.
• An illustrated pedagogical and playful sheet to learn how to make his first seedlings (in French).
• A recipe card to cook a dish with Enrico, while admiring Régine! (in French)
• Two wooden spikes to indicate where your seeds were planted.
• Two colored stickers to put on the small wooden spikes to remember where Régine and Enrico live.

Why Enrico and Régine? Beans are easy to grow and the nasturtium flowers are edible. Nasturtiums also play an important role in the vegetable garden because they attract aphids, which will leave the other plants in the garden alone.

HOW LONG DOES THE ACTIVITY LAST?

It takes a little less than an hour to read the educational sheets and plant your seeds. But the fun continues! Indeed, we have to take care of our friends Enrico and Régine every day once they are planted, so that they have enough light and water. Finally, when they show up, you can cook them thanks to the little recipe card in the garden kit... And enjoy them with your family.

AN ECOLOGICAL AND ETHICAL KIT, IN ALL ITS ASPECTS

The gardening kit for the apprentice gardener is made in France in an ESAT. What is an ESAT? It is an institution that promotes the integration of people with disabilities through work.

For more transparency, you will notice that the origin of all the products is displayed on the back of the kit. Except for the pots and the potting soil, everything is of French origin.

And, since les Petits Radis are members of 1% for the planet, each time you adopt a children's gardening kit, 1% is donated to an association that works to protect the environment.

THE FAMILY IS GROWING!

Your children have had the shot and are asking you for brothers and sisters for Enrico and Régine? No worries! We also offer you gardening kits in the form of a box, available in an unlimited subscription formula with no commitment, or over 3 months and 6 months, depending on your preference. Your little apprentices will thus be able to enjoy the joys of the vegetable garden all year round!
