We have the beginnings of our bean pole teepee! The poles are in the ground and the sod has been dug up around the perimeter. Perhaps tomorrow we'll add the twine, amend our soil (it's clay), and plant the beans. Also, I think we'll plant flowers around the perimeter this time, even if just marigolds. This teepee is larger than the one we built last time, which is good because Maia is larger. She'll need more space in her hideaway!
The bean pole teepee is one of the many ideas that I drew on my garden plan the other day. Maia joined me as I was sketching and was inspired to draw her own garden plan (below).
The different beds have seeds, seedlings, pumpkins, and weeds.
And here's another drawing she did of three birds under the double birdfeeder in our garden. I am just in love with Maia's drawings these days!
What are your kids drawing?
