Hot housing for fun

Wednesday, July 21, 2004

Learning through play is blossoming at Kew Gardens in London's newest interactive playground. 'Climbers and Creepers', designed for children from three to nine, has just opened and will keep them coming back for more long after summer is over. Children can get eaten by a giant Venus Fly Trap and climb inside a huge fragrant flower to pollinate it like a bee, after crawling through the prickly bramble patch and resisting the inedible green berries. Children are admitted free at Kew with a paying adult.
