Collecting donations in lieu of gifts at a birthday party is a growing trend among kids today. Why not encourage your child to have a garden party and collect donations for the garden? Friends could bring something from our wish list or cash. And just think...no new toys with a million pieces to put away after the party is over, just a contribution to getting kids outside and into the garden.
In our family, my children get a choice for their birthday parties every year: invite as many friends as you want and ask them bring donations for something that is important to you or invite a few friends who are free to bring gifts.
Kids at Foothills are excited about the garden. Plant this seed in your child's head and let him choose!
