A screen-free activity your child actually sticks with, without you having to plan a thing.
The Secret Garden has gone dormant, and Hootwell the Owl needs help waking it up. Every month he mails your child a letter, a seed to sprout in a jar, and a piece of the story. Your child sprouts the seeds, places their sticker on the Secret Garden map, and watches a sleeping garden come back to life, one month at a time.
Your little one receives a real letter from Hootwell the Owl with news from the Secret Garden and a story that keeps unfolding.
A new seed variety arrives each month. Just drop the seeds in a jar and add water. No soil, no mess. Seeds sprout within a few days.
Each month, Hootwell introduces a new garden character, and each one carries a little of the magic the garden needs to wake up. Your child places the sticker on the Secret Garden Map and watches the garden slowly come back to life.
A beautifully illustrated 11" x 17" keepsake that starts out dormant and fills in with collectible stickers over 12 months. The kind of map that ends up on the fridge, and stays there all year.
Month 1 OnlyEach month Hootwell sends seeds from a new garden friend, and they join the map when sprouted.
Broccoli the Brave
Clover Claire
Dottie Daikon
Cheswick Chive...and 8 more characters waiting to be revealed, one each month.
Screen-free and hands-on, with no batteries required. As your child grows their sprouts and places each sticker on the Secret Garden Map, they're learning patience and responsibility, and what it feels like to care for something living. To them, saving a garden is the most important job in the world.
Less than a cup of coffee a week, and so much more meaningful.
Designed for busy families
We test every seed ourselves before it ships, so every parent can be reassured it will work, and every child will find something to love.
From Hootwell's Desk
"Every great garden begins with a tiny seed,
and a little bit of imagination."
