Nature Based Wellbeing: Flower Crowns Children's Workshop

Making floral crowns is a fun, easy and mindful kid-friendly garden activity to get your children connected to their local environments.

Crafting floral crowns is a perfect activity for either rainy or hot days and is enjoyable for children to identify plants, and to observe and celebrate each of the different seasons.

Children will take away their own handcrafted floral crown which can be later dried as a keepsake, or composted.

Floral material will be supplied from the Botanic Garden.
