Planter with trellis/chalkboard

Gardening and mark making unite! Get children recording their nature observations or simply maximising their space with our Planter with Trellis Chalkboard. 

Designed at the perfect height for budding scientists at 115cm high, 91cm wide and 39.5cm deep, this clever design will get the least green fingered learners excited about the natural world around them. Get planting seasonal flowers, fruit and vegetables in this hardy planter, then encourage learners to mark make or write what they see changing as time goes along. Perhaps they’ll measure and record heights of sunflowers (wonderful outdoor maths activities), draw their plants, or even write down what they have planted! Mark making opportunities abound.

No need to stop at gardening themes, though! This clever chalkboard combination is a brilliant resource in itself by maximising your outdoor space. No need to decide between upping your gardening with children or increasing literacy ideas - this combines both, and can even act as an area divider in your outdoor space to separate things up a bit.
