Children in a garden
 

Family time is at a premium for many of us now that school and all the associated activities are back in swing. Spending a little time together in the garden is a great way to get your fall chores done and have a little fun in the process. Getting kids outdoors is pretty easy when there are piles of leaves to jump in after a long day cooped up in a school room, and it's also a great season to get them involved in your gardening. Planting spring bulbs is a great, easy project for kids to help with, and so is raking those leaves. What about collecting interesting cones, leaves, and seed pods to use in a fun Thanksgiving decoration? What activities do you and your kids and grandkids enjoy together?
