Offer children a valuable learning experience by demonstrating the cycle of natural waste. The Wormery features a large polycarbonate window so that children can view the creepy crawlies manoeuvring within the soil, and a colourful HDPE surround that can be customised to your liking. The children can add biological waste, such as food scraps and plant matter to the panel. Over time, they can then watch as the worms turn it into fresh compost. This compost can then be used for planting pots and beds - a great way to educate children on the life cycle of worms during science lessons. 

Wormery

Not only does the Wormery provide children with a great source of educational play, but it is also a fantastic composting system!

This compost can then be used for planting pots and beds. Wormerys are great way to educate children on the life cycle of worms during science lessons.

Wormery Benefits

As the worms churn natural waste and create fresh compost, this can be reused in the playground for planting vegetables, herbs, flowers and more. Children will develop key skills and confidence when it comes to handling natural materials, eventually developing a keen appreciation for wildlife and minibeasts.

The large polycarbonate window makes this piece of Natural Play equipment accessible for children of all abilities.

  • HDPE plastic panel (various colours available)
  • Large polycarbonate window
  • Free-standing on timber posts
  • Turn organic waste into compost
