Venice Forida Landscape design is one of the most important parts of your properties living environment.  Most people think of the kitchen or bathroom as what they should spend the most money and time on designing, however even though the kitchen will be used a lot for those of us who love to cook and entertain, however a well designed landscape will be more used than any other part of your living space.  A well designed landscape that is planned properly can become the most used space the family or single family home owner will use.

When planning your Venice Florida landscape design make sure you take al the aspects of your families lifestyle into account, small kids will love gardening vegetables, taking care of fruit such as oranges, lemons and the such, children take great pride in nurturing gardens and then harvesting the fruits of their labor, bringing it in the home and preparing it for the table, it not only gives them a really helpful hobby it teaches them that work brings good things in life.  Here are some tips on designing landscapes that are kid friendly.

1. Let your children be involved in the planning stages, let them give their ideas on what they want to see when the landscape is finished, give them books that they can understand,and even let them get their classroom involved in the process.  this will give them an exciting  reason to get to school and participate.

2. After they have helped in the design process, let them go to the nursery and pick out the plants with you, letting them get involved in the buying process will teach them that this is an investment, not just game. When visiting the nursery give them time to view all the plants, educate them on why we plant tree’s for shade, why we use ground covers, why ornamental and eatable landscapes are not only beneficiary for man kind but how the animals benefit from a well designed Venice Florida landscape Design .

3. Designing a vegetable garden in the plan will really get them excited, I have not met a kid yet that did not like gardening and working with vegetables it’s very therapeutic and gives them a good reward system.

4. Even if the labor is too much, let them watch the crew or the adults install the tree’s and plants, let them look up the benefits of grass, tree’s and shrubs, a little education will go along way and be with them the rest of their life.  Again let them involve their class mates.

After the design and install is complete let them write about the process, letting them expalin why a well designed  Venice Florida landscape design is so important to our environment and gives us many years of enjoyment.
