Come along to this interactive children's event where experienced children's educators from Little Sprouts will teach your kids about the wonderful world of pollinators.

During this activity, children will explore:

what pollination is
a range of important local pollinator animal species
why we need pollinators
how we can help pollinators

Children will play a flower pollination game and put learning into action by making seed balls. Once dry, they can be planted to help grow pollinator-friendly plants at home, or in the local area. Children must be supervised by a parent/ guardian.
