Oliver is really enjoying watering our plants and asks multiple times a day to play out back on the patio. It's a drawback to our city lifestyle that there isn't more room for him out there to play on a bike or with a call. But, he is water-mode, so he's happy. He loves to play with the hose, fill the watering can, water the plants, dump water on himself, make handprints/footprints on the cement -- lots and lots of fun!
Lately, we have gone out on the patio after dinner to check on the strawberry plant. It has been a great motivator to get Oliver to eat some more: "If you eat 5 more bites, you can have a strawberry for dessert". How awesome is that? Not a cookie, ice cream, etc... a single strawberry from the garden is motivation enough! I am so happy we bought some strawberry plants!
