Description:
The focus of Easter at Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew will be the launch of Treehouse Towers, Kew's brand new tree-themed outdoor play area designed for children from 3 to 11, supported by Velvet. As well as featuring giant swings, zip wires, scramble nets, slides and a mountaineering ramp, the play area will encourage children to appreciate trees. After playing on Treehouse Towers children can join tree-themed workshops to learn about the wide variety of species of trees and the importance of trees in preserving biodiversity by providing homes and food sources for birds, insects and other animals. A free Easter Egg Hunt will be held on Easter Sunday where children can collect tokens from botanical themed characters to claim a chocolate treat.
