How Greenhouses work?

Building and colouring your very own green house is such a great idea for children, engaging through the whole process, the manufacturers have the age range spot on 8+ -100.
Children love getting involved with gardening and it's such a fantastic learning tool as well as a bonding expereince.
My son who is 9 needed a bit of help putting the greenhouse together but after that he loved the whole process of decorating the greenhouse and making it his own.
You have to provide your own soil and seeds ih encourages you child to make choices as to what they want to grow.
Harvest your little gardener, teach them about temperature control, to check soil quality, encourage them to take full control and be responsible for their own science experiment.
The greenhouse can be used over and over again and you can monitor what grows well and fast and monitor daily progress.
I really can 't praise this kit enough, children aren't even aware they are learning and it's good for the enviroment, we looked at plants and how the bees need these to survice so froma greenhouse we were able to move onto ecology and save some bees as well.
Excellent value for money, perfect for home schooling, as a hobby, something for grandparents to do with their grandchildren and amzazing for the environment.
I kept my son;s greenhouse in the conservatory which is a perfect breeding ground with the humidity and temperature.

Always go with stem learning toys for kids. They are really great value. Especially if your kids are missing school etc due to the pandemic.
This one is a cracking buy at £20.
We went with the greenhouse. It is a treat for being good.
It is quite taxing for a 5 year old. That is for sure. So he needs help. But we are getting there.
It is like meccano in a way. Solid pieces which are fitting together nicely and at the end we will have learned plenty about the way greenhouses hold heat and keep plants away from adverse conditions.
The fact you can decorate this the way you want is awesome. Such a cool feature.

Taken from the instructions.
Young botanists grow their own plants from seeds inside a fully functional greenhouse they build themselves! Guided experiments will show little farmers how conditions like light, temperature and moisture affect their crops.

This is a skill that could be very interchangeable in the future.

Super book, greenhouse, concept. I hope it has enthused the little one to an extent.

Great value. Great toy. 5* Top marks all round.

In this greenhouse set there are clear instruction on how to build the greenhouse, with an app which gives a 3D interaction model which help kids on the model building. The border of the greenhouse are paper strips with patterns for colouring in.
There are 4 small plant pots provided but the compost and seeds is not given.
The booklet included provides some fun facts about planting, greenhouse and agriculture etc, which is very fun and interesting for kids learning about growth of plants.
The finished greenhouse is smaller than I expected, need to choose smaller size plants but growing from seeds will take a lot of patience. Wish it can be a bit bigger to accommodate bigger plants.
This will be a great topic to learn during this summer holiday.

This is an impressive educational toy that’s also fun to build and follow the brilliant workbook provided. The box contains everything you need to build a fully functional mini greenhouse, as well as plant pots. You will need some compost and seeds to fill in the work book tasks. It also comes with skins to colour and instructions for downloading skins from the Engino site, you can also create your own. You can also download an app for instructions in 3D view. The parts are sturdy and look good quality.

The booklet that comes with this toy takes this to another level. As well as fully illustrated instructions with list of materials there’s a brief history of agriculture, information on plants, photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration, types of greenhouse, experiment work sheet with exercises, note pages and a knowledge quiz to test what was learned.

Toys like this have several levels of entertainment and educational value. There’s something to build, interesting reading material, an ongoing experiment to follow over time and basic IT skills involved in downloading skins to colour and using the app. Once built the greenhouse can be used for growing experiments and continue to be used to grow seeds.

I’m so impressed by this kit I will be buying others for birthday and Christmas presents. My 10 year old nephew can’t wait to build this, he is really interested in their garden and helping with planting. I will add some pics when he’s built it.

This is small but it’s an excellent kit for my 7 year old who has an interest in growing things like sunflowers and tomatoes.
The learning side is very good, the book has a lot of info about history and growing science and it’s done in a good looking way for kids. It’s also heavily backed up with technology as you can downloads skins and instructions if you want.
It’s funny how once you build it there is the big wait for stuff to grow so I recommend something fast growing like cress which is easy to grow and appears in a couple of days.
Highly recommended for the kids, the price is very reasonable especially when you compare it to other things.
