How gardening makes learning fun for kids
Forest School teacher Jamie Johnson and two of her children share activities that help them learn about plants and wildlife at home.
Want to get your kids outside this summer? Forest school teacher Jaime Johnson explains why gardening is so beneficial for children and shares activities that will get them having fun in the garden and that also provide opportunities for learning. We visit her in her own garden to join her children – Rowan (4) and Amelie (12) – as they grow plants and explore wildlife.
