Hanningfield Nature Tots and Babies Easter Special

Join us this Easter school holiday in our wonderful woodland at Hanningfield! Our parent, toddler, and baby session includes a variety of outdoor activities, including swinging on the hammock, creative crafts, digging in the mud kitchen, and looking for minibeasts! We will finish the session around the cosy campfire (weather permitting). 

Our Nature Tots taster sessions allow young children to explore, play, and learn through nature. If you enjoy this session, you can come back and book onto our regular term-time sessions. Find out more here!

This event is suitable for children aged 18 months to 5 years. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
