A free gardening workshop is giving children the chance to explore the science and wonder of leaves.
Dobbies Garden Centre in Braehead will host a session of its Little Seedlings Club on Sunday, November 1, with a hands-on workshop that takes youngsters on a "journey through the seasons".
The session will introduce children to the science behind the lifecycle of leaves, what plants need for food, and what causes leaves to change colour.
It will also look at how fallen leaves provide habitats for wildlife, help nourish the soil, and come in a variety of shapes from around the world.

Hannah Stephen, event programme manager at Dobbies, said: "Our November Little Seedlings Club is a great chance for children to discover the fascinating world of leaves and how they change through the seasons.
"As well as learning something new, children will be able to get creative by making their own paper plate wreath to take home.
"We’re looking forward to welcoming our little seedlings back in November for another fun-filled session and helping inspire a love of nature."
The Little Seedlings Club is free and runs monthly, offering children the opportunity to learn about nature and gardening through interactive, seasonal activities.
Parents and guardians can book a free space for the Braehead session by visiting www.dobbies.com/events.
