my son will be 3 the end of may. one thing he has taught me is you really need to be patient to be a parent. things just aren't going to go the way you want. everything takes longer, and mishaps will happen. i'm letting my son "help" water the plants with a spray bottle. he likes squeezing the trigger. the plants get some water, the floor gets some water. the wall gets some water. sometimes dad gets some water. its all part of the learning process. he isn't going to be helping with the transplanting just yet. playing in dirt is right up his alley, but there is a limit to daddys patience.
maybe next year.
