Carlton-in-Lindrick children trade screens for nature to celebrate David Attenborough’s 100th Birthday

Children at Lime Tree Carlton-in-Lindrick Nursery created a nature expedition around their garden, incorporating different elements of discovery in celebration of Sir David Attenborough’s 100th birthday.

The children explored, investigated, and learned through the natural world around them, proving that there is so much more adventure to be found outdoors.

The event was inspired by the book Screen Time! by Georgie Henry.

A spokesperson said: “Through these activities, we aim not only to have fun, but also to raise awareness of the importance of balancing screen time with real-world exploration, creativity, and play, in line with guidance from UK Government Best Start in Life.”
