Its time you try something a little different! Children's Gardening should be quick and fun! What better way than to personalise your garden with your own fruits and vegetables!
Plants can take a long time to grow, but this is quick and easy.
Choose your favourite fruit, it should be of a mature size, but not yet changing colour. A banana is perfect as it is longer and changes colour quickly.
Cut out paper letters of your name.
Make sure that the size of the letters will fit on the fruit!
Jennifer Pickles says You will need some edible glue, watch the video below to see how easy it is to make. You will probably need an adult to help you
How to make edible sugar glue
Using edible glue, paste the letters on the side of the fruit facing the sun and allow the fruits to mature naturally check that insects or rain have not eaten or washed the letters away.
When the fruit is ripe, wash off the paper letters. The name should be emblazoned on the fruit in pale letters that did no change colour due to exposure to the sun.
You can use different shapes for your stencils.
For a larger project, get a parent to cut the letters of your name out of cardboard and place either the cut-out letters or the cardboard box on your lawn. After a week, remove the letters and your name will be inscribed on the grass. Your own piece of garden!
