About this Event

Muddy Wellies is supported by Public Health Sunderland to get young children outdoors to improve their health and wellbeing, develop new skills and learn about nature. 


Sessions are aimed at pre-school children between 2 and 5 years and will take place outdoors in January and February.


In this session we will explore Hetton Lyons Countrypark with a pair of binoculars and see all the different birds we see over winter. Learn about where we can find different types of birds and the adaptations they use to thrive in their habitat.  


More information about the sessions:


To gain the most from our programme, we recommend you come to all six sessions, but if you cannot make it to all the sessions, just message Lyze to let them know. 


Little ones must be accompanied by an adult. Booking is essential. Tickets are only required for children. 


Facilities are available in The Lakes Cafe on site. 


Please come dressed for outdoor activities appropriate to the weather of the day including sturdy shoes, layers and waterproofs. We do have limited sizes of waterproofs and wellies available to lend out if needed – please let us know prior to the sessions if you would like to borrow these. 


All activity equipment will be provided for each session. We kindly ask that you bring a filled water bottle, a snack and a bag to carry it all in.
