VEGGIE BOMB KIT

Know a child who won’t eat their veggies? What if they grew them themselves?

AGES 4+

Made for budding little gardeners — although there’s no upper age limit on getting excited about growing your own food.

Get ready to mix, squish, roll... and grow! 

The Veggie Bomb Kit turns growing your own food into a brilliantly hands-on activity. Children can make their own vegetable seed bombs using French Dwarf Beans, Beetroot and Radish, then plant them and watch as their very own veggies begin to grow.

The seeds are organic, with no residual chemical pesticides or insecticides — kinder for children, wildlife and the nature growing around them.

There’s no need to wait for planting season to enjoy making them either. Veggie bombs can be made at any time of year, then dried and stored until conditions are right for growing. When the time comes, plant them in a suitable spot in the garden, vegetable patch or a roomy plant pot and let nature get to work.

And unlike an activity that’s finished once the making is done, this one keeps going. Children can check for shoots, water their growing plants, watch their vegetables develop and eventually experience the rather brilliant feeling of eating something they grew themselves.

It’s a fun way to introduce children to growing their own food, where vegetables come from and the responsibility of looking after a living plant — with plenty of muddy hands along the way.

Will it suddenly turn beetroot into their favourite food? We make no promises. But children can be surprisingly interested in trying something when they’ve grown it themselves!

Perfect for: ages 4+, budding little gardeners, reluctant veggie eaters, grow-your-own projects, gardening activities, outdoor learning, unusual nature gifts and anyone who likes getting their hands dirty.
