Do you garden with children or work at a school? This is a fun project to do with  children. I am always looking for a rainy day project and since I love gardening, this is perfect. Last year we made memory ladybug rocks with the students in a grade one class. This year I hope to do it with my grade three school garden class.

To start, you have to collect some flat rocks. You can either collect them from around the garden or buy them at your local garden center. If you need a lot for a class project , it may be easier to see if the local garden center will donate them.
