Nature Dough is just the activity you 'knead' for children these school holidays!

In this fun and hands-on workshop, children will make their own 'nature dough' incorporating the natural colours, scents and textures of plants.

This is a sensory rich experience for children to observe and celebrate plants in their creations, with the rare opportunity to use plants we have gathered from the Botanic Gardens.

Children can take their own dough home for further sensory play or use moulds to create ornaments.


Location: Goodman Building Lecture Theatre, Adelaide Botanic Garden (C6 on the map)

Recommended for children ages 5+


Please note: 

  • All children must be accompanied by an adult / caregiver throughout this event.
