WILDFLOWER SEED BOMB KIT FOR BEES AND BUTTERFLIES

Know someone who’d love to grow their own flowers for bees and butterflies?

AGES 4+

Little gardeners love it. Grown-up gardeners have been known to get rather involved too.

Get ready to mix, squish and roll!

This hands-on Wildflower Seed Bomb Kit contains everything needed to make approximately 20 seed bombs, turning growing wildflowers into a brilliantly messy nature activity.

Once made, the seed bombs can be used to add a little burst of wildflower colour to gardens, plant pots and other suitable spots that could do with some extra life — providing valuable food and shelter for bees, butterflies and other insects along the way.

The clay helps protect the seeds while the compost gives them a helping hand to get growing. And there’s no need to wait for the perfect time of year to make them — seed bombs can be made at any time, then dried and stored ready for planting. They are best scattered when conditions are suitable for germination; just avoid throwing them during frosty weather.

Children can scatter them in the garden, create their own little wildflower patch or pop one into a plant pot — perfect if your outdoor space is more balcony than back garden! They can even dry their finished seed bombs and give them as little handmade gifts.

It’s a lovely way to get hands dirty, grow something from scratch and discover how planting even a small patch of wildflowers can help support pollinators.

Perfect for: ages 4+, little gardeners, bee and butterfly lovers, messy nature activities, gardening gifts, pollinator projects, outdoor learning and grown-ups who quite fancy making a few seed bombs themselves.
