Gardening For Children

We are very excited about the recent launch of our brilliant NEW website www.gardeningforchildren.co.uk

The website is the brainchild of Syliva as part of the Recycle Work's 'Love your Environment' campaign and its aim is to encourage children to both learn how to garden and grow their own food. It is can be used by schools and families alike and has information, fact sheets, advice and competitions for both. There are links to on-line educational games, which we think young children will enjoy playing, while at the same time learning about the environment.

We paln for the site to grow with time, relying on feedback from children, their parents and their teachers.

Some initial responses:

" I have not had a chance to explore it properly yet but visually it looks brilliant. It is really colourful and enticing as well as being laid out in a simple way.
Looks like you are onto a winner. It might be we could put it into the business section. I'll discuss it with my colleagues and let you know."

 "I will make sure your new gardening with children’s website is featured in our news section in the next issue to make sure our readers know about this new site.The editor of the magazine has been on your site and said how lovely and suitable it is for a news mention (my sentiments exactly) so he said he will write the piece for you from the information on the site and do a ‘screen grab’ on the site because it is so colourful "

 We hope you will take a look and explore the site.
