    Abstract
    The earth's climate is rapidly changing due to various human activities, including deforestation, fossil fuel burning, and industrial activities. These changes have caused significant environmental problems such as global warming, sea level rise, and extreme weather events. The condition is even worse in urban cities because of the shrinking of green space due to a significant increase in the demand for housing and infrastructure. In this context, there is an urgent need to promote sustainable lifestyles and encourage people to adopt environmentally friendly practices. Many designers and architects have been exploring innovative ways to integrate greenery into the built environment. One of the ways to tackle climate change is by promoting gardening and encouraging people to grow their plants and vegetables. Gardening has numerous benefits, such as reducing the carbon footprint, improving air quality, enhancing biodiversity, promoting a healthy lifestyle, and reducing the urban heat island effect. Gardening can also be fun and engaging for children, as they can learn about plants, insects, and the natural world. This project aims to develop an interactive gardening kit that will facilitate children to generate their interest in gardening and make them experience nature closely. It also helps to teach children about sustainability. The project will also address the various challenges children face when it comes to gardening, such as limited space, lack of access to soil and water, and the need for maintenance and care while away from the garden. The kit will solve these challenges by using innovative approaches such as creating a small-scale garden using recycled materials, providing organic alternatives to chemical fertilisers and pesticides, and teaching children about composting. Overall, the project aims to generate interest in gardening among children and promote sustainable practices with an engaging and enjoyable experience that can help mitigate the impact of climate change. By introducing children to gardening, we hope to inspire them to become environmentally conscious and responsible individuals who care about the planet.
