Let's Get Rewild: Children's GardeningThanks for being part of London, Let's Get Rewild. This week's theme was National Children's Gardening Week, and we encouraged children and their families to garden. We learnt sowing seeds, helping plant and getting inspired by greenery in your London garden could help your child (and you) reconnect with nature, grow up healthy and happy, and get off screens. 1 in 5 British children cannot identify a bumblebee. Gardening can restore a lifelong connection with nature. Gardening improves children's wellbeing, encouraging healthy lifestyles, teaching them skills, and promoting their emotional and cognitive development. 1 in 4 parents say their children have little or no interest in nature, and spend far more time on screens than outdoors.
