Nature Tots is paused for the moment
Nature Tots has not been able to return this term as previously planned as our Education Team have not yet returned to work following the Government initiated lockdown. We hope to be up and running again very soon so please check back.
Engaging children with the muddy, magical natural world
Nature Tots is our fun-filled and educational play programme dedicated to helping pre-schoolers get in touch with wildlife and the great outdoors.
Each Nature Tots session is exciting and interactive, with all activities linked to the seven stages of development. Combining both independent learning and team-working, our sessions are designed to boost each child's communication and problem solving skills, physical development and creativity through good old-fashioned fun!
From environmental arts and crafts and story time to minibeast hunts, woodland games and much more, Nature Tots activities take place both inside and out, so you and your little ones will have a wonderful time come rain or shine. We can even provide wellies and waterproof suits if required.
Love going to Nature Tots with my granddaughter. The staff are friendly, welcoming and helpful, and really enthusiastic. I love that the children are encouraged to explore, get dirty and ask questions.

What to expect at Nature Tots
Take a look at what we've been up to at Nature Tots recently.
Well organised, with hand-washing facilities (whether we are outside or inside), warm drinks, healthy snacks; even down to having hot water bottles for the children if we are outside on a cold day.
