Harlow Carr, Part 2

There's a children's show here called In the Night Garden, and Clara loves it (which means it can hold her attention for about 10-15 minutes). RHS Harlow Carr had a special In the Night Garden installation, so we took the kids to see it.

We received an activity packet with a map to follow, and we were able to see a few different parts of the gardens than we had last time. And of course the late spring plants were in full bloom, so that changed the scenery a bit.



All three children liked the special installation, especially Clara. There was an app you could download to play a game, but she was happy just to find the pictures of the characters.




Her "cheese" face, aka Blue Steel

We took a nice, relaxed pace, and let the kids explore.





This tree had enormous flowers!



This gazebo had pretty stained glass.






And this time, the kids got to play at the play areas. We didn't stay very long though, because the hungry meltdowns started.







So we grabbed a quick lunch and headed toward the exit, ending another fun trip to the gardens.
