Guide Review
Tools for the Young Gardener
A child is more eager to work if he has his own tools and gloves that fit. It is hard for kids to use tools made for adults - they inevitably hit themselves in the head with the handles or are not strong enough and get frustrated.

These kid-sized tools made by Weeks Toys are sturdy tools with wood handles and brightly colored, metal working parts. This set comes with six tools: a square shovel, spade shovel, leaf rake, 7 tooth garden rake, garden hoe, and a push broom. The tools really work and are sturdy enough to last from season to season.

Kids will be proud to wear their "I Like to Grow" apron and their leather gloves! Gardening is great exercise and a good way for homeschoolers to meet the physical education and science requirements.
