willing, and able gardeners, take steps early. </span> <span data-start-time='9604' data-end-time='18438'>It is not difficult, but you might need to change your thinking about children in the garden.</span> <span data-start-time='18438' data-end-time='24875'>That is one of the many suggestions made by Jeff Lowenfels. </span> <span data-start-time='24875' data-end-time='29896'>He writes about gardening for the Associated Press. </span> <span data-start-time='29896' data-end-time='37333'>Lowenfels says that gardeners are made, not born. </span> <span data-start-time='37333' data-end-time='43792'>He suggests several ways to help turn a child into a gardener.</span> <span data-start-time='43792' data-end-time='49521'>The first step is to get your child interested in plants. </span> <span data-start-time='49521' data-end-time='58146'>This, he says, is getting more difficult because of competition from electronics.</span> <span data-start-time='58146' data-end-time='63667'>Taking a child to a plant store is another good place to start. </span> <span data-start-time='63667' data-end-time='69271'>There they can smell the flowers and touch other plants.</span> <span data-start-time='69271' data-end-time='73750'>Next, let your child buy a plant. </span> <span data-start-time='73750' data-end-time='82771'>Lowenfels says he still remembers the first plant his father helped him choose when he was six years old. </span> <span data-start-time='82771' data-end-time='92979'>He says that plant, called a lantana, is where his love of plants and gardening began to grow.</span> <span data-start-time='92979' data-end-time='100104'>Children not old enough to care for a plant by themselves, need adults to teach them. </span> <span
