A day at the garden centre

from £12.99

Visiting a garden centre? This pack turns a family day out into a gentle, curiosity-led learning adventure.

From plants and pollinators to seeds, soil, and the quiet rhythms of the growing world — there is so much to discover when you look a little closer. This workbook helps children explore with open eyes and a sense of wonder, at their own pace, in their own way.

Whether you're browsing houseplants, wandering through the outdoor sections, or stopping for a hot chocolate along the way, everything inside works wherever your visit takes you.

What your child will discover

Through gentle activities and guided exploration, children will learn about how plants grow and what they need to thrive, the difference between annuals, perennials, and shrubs, pollinators and the vital role they play in our gardens, seeds, bulbs, and the cycle of growth through the seasons, and how gardens support wildlife and human wellbeing.

What's inside

  • Observation challenges to spot plants, insects, and garden features

  • Drawing and recording tasks to capture what they find

  • Plant and flower identification activities

  • Writing prompts and reflection pages to record favourite discoveries and surprises

  • Creative activities inspired by the natural world and the growing season

  • "Did You Know?" facts throughout to spark curiosity and conversation

28 pages, full colour, with clear instructions and plenty of space to write, draw, and explore.

Flexible and inclusive

Suitable for a wide range of ages and abilities. Clear layouts, simple language, and no timed tasks — everything works at your child's pace. Dip in before you go, use it on the day, or complete activities at home afterwards.

Accreditation available

Your child's completed work can count toward a nationally recognised certificate — no exams, no pressure. Add learner registration at checkout if you'd like formal recognition for their learning.

Keep exploring — there are so many more adventures waiting for you.
