JUNE 11-20: In an urban setting, it can be challengin­g to find opportunit­ies for children to connect and learn from nature.

If you’re looking to fill your child’s holiday with some outdoor play and creativity, this children’s holiday programme gives the children a space to get down and dirty with growing food and more.

The programme consists of six workshops, each designed to get children back into the outdoors – to learn about where their food comes from, how to eat healthily, and be more connected to the environmen­t we live in.

The goal is to inspire children to open their eyes to the wonders of nature, and get their hands involved in creating things for themselves. They will also learn how to prepare their own healthy lunch each day. Prices: RM90 (one day), RM250 (three days), RM480 (six days). Time: 9am-noon.
