A NEW survey has revealed that British kids don’t know much about nature or the outdoors.

More than 2,000 kids were surveyed by the TV channel Eden to launch a new campaign, Eden Inspires, in association with TV presenter Ben Fogle, which aims to get kids more connected with nature.

They found that almost three-quarters of British kids spend more time watching TV in a week than they do playing outside. Around 36% of kids say they only play outside once a week or less.

Their knowledge on native animals is also limited, with over 50% believing that grey squirrels are native, and 39% believing birds nest in autumn and winter.

Eden can be found on Sky, channel 532 and Virgin TV channel 208.
