Kids say—and do—the darndest things!
When you read the special GreenPrints Collection Gardening with Kids: Heartwarming & educational stories for everyone today, you get the best—and funniest—real-life stories about kids in the garden.
When Bill first read the “My Dinosaur Bromeliad” story, he couldn’t help but think of his grandson Nicholas. He is a dinosaur fanatic—and for a six-year-old kid, he’s somewhat of an expert! He even corrects him on pronunciation.
Nicholas loves to play outside in the yard with Bill, searching for dinosaurs. “That’s a pine cone, Papa Bill,” he once said. “Dinosaurs probably didn’t like pine cones.”
When Bill read Nicholas “My Dinosaur Bromeliad”—and he saw the cute illustration with an emerging dinosaur (“That’s a T-Rex, Papa Bill!”)—he immediately wanted the plant and the sponges. And he’s a quick study: “B-R-O-M-E-L-I-A-D,” he slowly pronounced.
“My Dinosaur Bromeliad” is just one story in the GreenPrints Special Collection Gardening with Kids: Heartwarming & educational stories for everyone that will delight you, educate you, and give you fodder for telling stories to the kids in your life.
