About

Enjoy swinging in the hammock, be creative with our craft, dig in the mud kitchen, look for minibeasts, and so much more! We will finish the session around the campfire (weather permitting - we will send an email of food suggestions for toasting after booking).

This event is suitable for children aged 5+. Please come appropriately dressed for the weather, as we will be outside for the whole session. Advance booking is essential, and children must always be accompanied by an adult.
