Summer at Kew

Things to do at home

Get inspired by our Summer Festival - watch our video of butterflies hatching, create your own origami butterfly, or make your garden a place that wildlife loves to visit.

Make your own

Get creative with Kew

Get creative at home and make your very own origami butterflies and frogs, or make a grasshead and watch his hair grow!  We have simple guides for you to download and follow. 

Get busy creating and then send us your photos to show us what you have made.

Make a real difference to the wildlife in your garden or local area - put up a bird box, make your own compost, or plant flowers that butterflies will love to visit.
