New Jersey Home & Garden Show at New Jersey Convention Center
- see all dates
Kids can play and learn at the 35th Annual New Jersey Home & Garden Show, featuring balloon animals, old-fashioned games like bean bag and ring toss, tic-tac-toe, and a mini fishing pond. Parents can check out products from more than 100 remodelers, contractors, interior designers and landscapers.
Children can also embellish and color an unfinished wood cutout that they can take home.
After seeing six glorious gardens in bloom, children can meet feature speaker Don Engebretson, the Renegade Gardener. The landscape designer and award-winning garden writer, who identifies the 10 worst gardening blunders and how to avoid them, suggests how to interest children in gardening.
At the show, parents can hear speakers Russel Siegel, the wallpaper hanger artist and Doreen Stovenour, a repurposing guru to gather ideas.
