Dobbies’ Little Seedlings Club: September Workshop: Mindfulness in the garden
Dobbies, the UK’s leading garden centre, is nurturing the next generation of gardeners with its free Little Seedlings Club workshop this September, inviting young gardeners to explore mindfulness in a fun and engaging way.
This monthly workshop is designed for children aged 4-10 and takes place on Sunday 1 September at 11am.
Promising an enriching experience that blends the joys of gardening with the calming practices of mindfulness, this upcoming session focuses on Mindfulness in the Garden. Children will get a chance to learn about the benefits of being present in the moment and connecting with nature.
Dobbies’ colleagues will guide young attendees through mindfulness, explaining what it is and why it’s beneficial. The session will highlight how using the five senses can enhance the gardening experience, encouraging children to notice the vibrant colours, fragrant scents, and soothing sounds of their surroundings.
Kids will discover how mindfulness can be practiced in the garden, helping them relax and focus. Whether it’s the feel of soil between their fingers or the sight of a blooming flower, these experiences can be incredibly grounding and stress-relieving. The workshop will also provide practical tips for practising mindfulness at home, making it easy for families to incorporate these calming practices into their daily lives.
