With all the current interest in the environment, it comes as no surprise that plant walks are quite a hit these days.
While most of these walks are geared towards adults and older kids, The Space is organising a session that will introduce the young ones to the plant kingdom.
Also, this week, the Bookworm Children’s Library has a variety of events for kids at its various venues in Panjim, Aldona and Saligao. There will be activities such as drama, calendar-making and more for children of all ages.
