Winter is ending. The sun is getting higher and higher every day, and the days are getting longer and warmer. It's time to plant. Vegetable gardening on a windowsill in a kindergarten is a very pleasant activity, especially in winter and spring, when you want not only to taste the fresh gifts of nature, but also to look at the colors of greenery or tomatoes. But there is nothing more pleasant than the first greenery of spring, which pleases the children right in the group room on the windowsill. It can be onions, parsley, dill, and even lettuce. A vegetable garden on a windowsill is a great way to dispel the seasonal longing for natural colors and warmth.
