Publisher's Description of In the Garden - 30 Video Lessons (Dirt Academy Kids)
The "In the Garden" video lesson library includes 30 videos — one for every lesson in the textbook and workbooks — giving families a watch-first resource that removes all uncertainty before heading outside. Each video is 6–12 minutes long and follows a two-part format designed to be both educational and genuinely enjoyable for kids.
In the first half of each video, a member of the Dirt Academy Kids team walks through the full content of the textbook lesson, covering the same concepts a parent would read aloud — making it easy to use the video in place of or alongside the read-aloud for any given lesson. In the second half, the lesson comes to life with a live demonstration filmed in Nina and Brendon's real, working raised bed garden. Kids watch the concept being applied in an actual garden — not a studio, not stock footage — with fun, unscripted moments woven throughout to keep kids laughing and engaged.
The videos are designed so families always know exactly what to do before they walk outside. Parents never have to guess, search YouTube, or feel one step behind their kids. Lifetime access is included in the "In the Garden" Bundle.
