Sharing know-how about UK gardening
3. Gardening equipment - gift ideas
Getting dirty is part of the fun, but Brio, Gardeners Pal and Wolf have children's sized gardening gloves so they can copy Mum and Dad. And wellies are no longer only black or green - there are plenty of bright colours and patterns for youngsters.
For tools suitable for small hands, look out for the mini-tools sold for adults to tend window boxes and planters. Alternatively there are children-specific tools such as Brio's and Gardeners Pal's ranges.
There are even gardening tools bundled into the rear basket of Lew-Ways' gardening trike - ideal for quick getaways in between planting and watering.
