About Gardening4Kids

Welcome to Gardening4Kids – the gardening school for children in Aberdeen City and Shire. Gardening with children encourages their interest in nature and enthusiasm early on, and gives them invaluable basic life skills and an understanding of the world around them. Growing their own fruit and vegetables also means that children are less likely to be ‘fussy eaters’ and develop a healthy attitude to eating fruit and vegetables.

Gardening4Kids holds monthly classes for pre-schoolers and primary school aged children in local children’s nurseries, garden centres and play centres in Aberdeen City and Shire. It offers a range of activities including seed sowing, fruit, vegetable and flower growing and related craft activities. Parent/child classes provide a perfect opportunity for you to spend quality time together and you are important to Gardening4Kids sessions being successful.

Reviews

This is what some parents thought of our classes:

My son loves taking care of his plants and they are all still alive, so far! He particularly enjoyed seeing the strawberries grow, even though he didn’t eat any but I did! He also enjoyed the painting, cutting and gluing.

Took my boys today and so glad I did. My partner and I were not sure as neither of us is keen on gardening but found we enjoyed it as much as the kids. Our neighbours are already admiring our hanging baskets. Really fun activity for the children. Will spread the word.

My boy has really enjoyed gardening club classes and we have found them to be well-planned, organised and good fun. He has been really pleased with the things he has taken home with him, talks to his grandparents about them, and I think things like eating a strawberry that he has planted himself has been a treat as well as educational.
