Of Cheesemakers and Miniature Gardens

Cheesemaking for Fun

Lately I've been inspired by a few things I've come across. The first being a site I'd like to share, http://www.cheesemaking.com/ where you can find beginner cheesemaking kits! Learn to make your own feta, mozzarella, gouda, cottage cheese, and more!

This kit will likely be my first adventure. Maybe we'll make some pizza too!

Miniature Gardening for Kids


Additionally, for little ones, a fun project is to make a miniature garden. This site is a great place for inspiration and some supplies. http://www.weegarden.com/Blog.html

You can also create a miniature vegetable garden using Tom Thumb peas, baby miniature lettuce heads, small strawberries, and other small growing items good for containers and just right for a child to take care of in a small space.

Another idea might be to take a clear storage bin, fill it with dirt and rocks, and purchase some small starter houseplants to create a dinosaur habitat. Your child can supply the dinosaurs and imagination! Terrariums can be a lot of fun too!
