The Highfield Discovery Garden at Glenwood Gardens Park in Cincinnati, Ohio, is one of my kids' favorite places to visit in the summer. It features a 25-foot tall Discovery Tree which kids can climb and discover all kinds of hidden animals and treasures. My personal favorite is Grandma's Scent Garden which contains many fragrant plants and herbs. There's also a Wizard's garden, a Vegetable Garden, a Trolley Garden (sure to be a hit for train lovers), a frog pond (my son's favorite), and a Fairy Garden.
The garden is open from May 1st to August 31st. Admission is $4.00 for adults and $3.00 for children.
That's a neat idea for kids - gets them involved.
ReplyDeleteThe garden has a lot of great programs for kids.
DeleteWhat an amazing place and I certainly understand why your children would like it.
ReplyDeleteIt looks sort of like my garden :)

Then you must have a cute garden!
DeleteHi Sherry .. sounds like a great garden for all the family - love the sound of the scent garden, while can quite easily see the children being enchanted by the others ..
ReplyDeleteYou must be very pleased you do live nearby .. cheers Hilary
I really enjoy the scent garden. There's a lovely swing on which to sit and enjoy it.
DeleteWhat an interesting garden. I'd like to visit there one day.
ReplyDeleteThe children's garden is a beautiful place, but there is also a larger garden that adults would enjoy.
DeleteThat looks adorable! Reminds me of the Enchanted Forest just south of Salem, OR.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's very similar!
