Gardening Workshops for Children
Get down to Dobbies for a fun-filled day out at one of our free gardening workshops (for children aged 4-10). By joining our workshops, your child will become a member of our Little Seedlings Club! Here, we help children and families to start growing, and encourage them to learn about wildlife, plants and the environment in our friendly group settings.
Every first Sunday of the month (and special school holiday clubs), we host our famous gardening workshops for you and your Little Seedling. As well as giving you lots of garden ideas for children that you can then follow at home, we teach a whole range of exciting and educational content, using activities and games to help each little seedling learn more.
Each attendee will be given a welcome pack containing fun stickers and a handy folder to store the activities each month. There’s also an attendance card and each child will receive a certificate after their third, sixth and twelfth workshops. So, why not sign up to one of our Little Seedlings workshops today?
April Workshop
For our April workshop, we will be looking forward to Earth Day and learning all about ways we can be kinder to our planet. Kids will also discover the wonders of wildflowers and the amazing part they play in keeping the Earth happy and healthy. Our Little Seedlings will get the chance to create their own wildflower seed balls to take home and plant their own mini meadows.
Easter Holiday Club
For Easter 2025 we have a special Little Seedlings holiday club where we'll be celebrating all things spring! We’ll explore the signs of spring both above and below ground, examine the animals and insects returning to our gardens, and learn about springtime celebrations around the world
