What is a colorful way to stake my childs plants?

Staking Young Plants

To gently help the struggling pole bean or tomato plant grow upright, loosely tie the stem to a bamboo pole with bright colorful scraps of fabric. Your child's harvest may not be the biggest, but those bright snips of color will brighten the gloomiest day. For more color, use non-toxic paint to paint the stakes with bright primary colors.
