Hanningfield Nature Tots

Step into the enchanting world of Nature Tots, where your little ones can embark on an outdoor adventure. Activities vary each week, from muddy pancakes in the mud kitchen, lots of fun in the hammock, creative crafts, and so much more! These sessions are designed to spark curiosity about the natural world and empower you to embrace the holistic benefits of outdoor play for your child’s well-being and development 🌼🐝

The sessions run in a block of 6 sessions and take place weekly during term time—every Friday from 7 November to 19 December (7 weeks). At booking, you have the option to purchase a 7-week block ticket or a 1-week ticket.

Dates: 7, 14, 21, 28 November, 5, 12, 19 December.
The 1-week ticket is valid for the Nature Tots session on 7 November 2025 only.
