It's good to know that kids go free to
BBC Gardeners' World Live and the BBC Good Food Show Summer on Family
weekend. On Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th paying adults can bring up
to two children under 18 into the Show for free. Plus children under
5 get free admission into the Show everyday.
The Shows are aiming to help parents
encourage their children to get involved with cooking, gardening and
show them Britain's great variety of food and above all to have fun!
Monty Don says: "BBC Gardeners'
World Live is a great way to educate children on gardening and food,
giving them the chance to see how it is grown and where it comes
from. Both shows merge fantastically together to encourage children
to enjoy growing their food and cooking it."
Celebrity chef James Martin says: "BBC
Good Food Show Summer is a fantastic way to teach children about
healthy eating. They can learn how to grow their own food and then
cook it up into something delicious. It's the perfect summer day out
for all the family with activities all day long including: arts and
crafts, entertainment and lots of wonderful food and gardening."
