Stay and Play

Share in the wonder of nature with your children at our wonderful Stay and Play sessions!

Session times are 10.10am-12.10pm on Thursday mornings

Have fun exploring the woods throughout the seasons with your children as they…hunt for mini-beasts; make something in our creative corner; learn new vocabulary; get messy in the mud kitchen; use basic wood crafting tools; build core muscles and coordination whilst climbing trees, clambering over logs and building dens.

Come prepared for the changeability of the Great British Weather – sturdy shoes/boots and clothing that cover arms and legs are essential. We do have canopies for shelter but are essentially open to the elements, so bring lots of layers and waterproofs to help you stay warm and dry. A change of clothes is always advisable for the children, especially if they want to venture to Otter Island, our mini river area. Be prepared for them (and you!) to get messy – it’s all part of the fun!

Included in the price is hot and cold drinks and a smalll snack - often cooked on the open fire.

Who’s it for: Stay and Play for parents/grandparents/childminders/carers with toddlers and pre-schoolers. The sessions are also suitable for children up to age 8 who are home educated and not yet ready to be left unattended; they make great "feeder" sessions for our EHE sessions.

This is a really friendly and welcoming group; you and your children will soon feel at home and make new friends.

The cost per session works out cheaper for you if you book a whole term block, but it is also absolutely fine to come along ad-hoc.
