Would gardening come under any other area of learning other than understanding the world? I'm thinking straightforward planting and watering seeds. If we measure how tall the plants grow could that cover a bit of maths too?!

PD should also cover health and hygeine aspects such as safe use/transport/storage of tool; hand-washing after gardening; etc. :thumbsup:
