Children will be given the opportunity to discover more about autumn colour displays in nature, how plants and animals prepare for the winter ahead, and take part in games and hands-on activities to help learn about autumn wildlife.

They will also have the chance to plant their own daffodil bulb to take home for flowering in spring.

Dobbies’ monthly Little Seedlings Club workshops at the Lasswade store offer children the opportunity to take part in a combination of hands-on learning and playful exploration.

The workshops cover a range of seasonal topics designed to be fun and engaging for kids to learn about nature and wildlife.

Hannah Stephen, Dobbies’ event programme manager, said: “September’s Little Seedlings Club is a great opportunity for children to embrace the changing season and discover how plants and wildlife adapt as autumn arrives.

“It’s a fascinating topic that encourages young minds to explore and appreciate the natural world around them.

“Our free ‘Autumn Colours’ workshop is packed with fun activities, hands-on learning and engaging discussions.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming children into the Monifieth store and helping them discover the magic of autumn.”

Families can book a free space for Dobbies’ Monifieth store Little Seedlings Club this September by visiting www.dobbies.com/events.

The store is also offering a programme of autumn activities, with experiences designed for children, families, dog owners.

Sessions will include a Dobbies’ Crafternoon Tea, where customers will enjoy afternoon tea, and start to create a unique glass mosaic to take home and complete; a spellbinding Hallowe’en Tea Party at the Little Scare-lings event; and the popular Pup-kin Patch with lots of fun for dogs.
