Growums Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

I always grew up with a garden in my backyard! It was so nice to pick fresh tomatoes, cucumbers and strawberries in the summer months! I wanted to share this experience with my kids but our backyard isn't exactly big enough for a garden like we had growing up. Growums garden kits are a great way to introduce gardening to our children! We received a Growums Pizza Garden to review and my kids are loving it! The Pizza Garden Kit contains 1 package of Roma Tomato Seeds. 1 package of Basil Seeds, 1 package of Oregano Seeds, 1 package of Bell Pepper Seeds, 8 Coco Pellets (dirt), 8 Plant Tags (2 per vegetable) and easy to follow directions! While your plants are growing your child can go online to the Growums website and create a virtual garden of their own and meet and play with the characters they are growing: Tomas the Tomato, Regan O. Oregano, Baby Basil and more! Bella likes playing with her veggies online and checks to see how her plants are doing every morning! I've put her in charge of the watering of her plants and she hasn't forgotten once!





More about Growums:

Growums™ garden kits are a fun, simple learning tool that teaches children and adults alike the joys and benefits of growing their own food. The results bring more than just entertainment and a tasty harvest.

It all starts with the Growums garden kit, containing everything a child needs to grow a real garden – whether it’s in the back yard or grown in containers on a patio or balcony. Each kit contains its own cast of “characters,” depending on what type of garden is being grown. Kids have six garden choices: Pizza, Taco, Ratatouille, Salad, Stir-Fry, and Herb.

As the real gardens grow, a new garden comes alive online: In the Growums virtual world, children get to actually meet and play with the characters they’re growing, including Tomas the tomato, Duke the Cuke, Belle Peppa and the Great Zucchini (and more)! These lovable online characters help children understand the growing process through a variety of fun gardening facts and games in the virtual world, meanwhile guiding kids along their true-life adventures in their real gardens.
Growums has also launched a fundraising program! I think this would be a great way to help out your child's school or organization! To learn more about the Growums Fundraising Program visit their website: http://growums.com/Fundraising!
