Little Seedlings Club August Workshop - Summer sun vs shade | Sunday 2 August
In this summer-themed Little Seedlings workshop, children will explore the sunny and shady sides of the garden and discover how different plants use sunlight in different ways. Through real plant demonstrations, interactive discussion and hands-on activities, children will learn how plants use sunlight to make food, why most plants are green, and which plants prefer sunny or shady spots. The workshop also explores fascinating succulents, caring for plants during hot weather, and staying safe in the summer sun. Children will finish the session by creating their own sun-shaped suncatcher to take home.
