Our youngest participants, Mini Forester’s, who are just 3 years old will join the Little Foresters for the duration of the session. The children will be emersed in nature-based activities through hands-on and practical experiences set up by the leaders. The Mini Foresters children will spend their time at the base camp in the many different areas and learn about their natural world as well as joining the Little Foresters for a forest walk. We will have a camp fire snack and a packed lunch (early pick up is available at 12.30)
Our Little Foresters spend their session learning about nature by playing games and engaging in bushcraft and nature craft activities. We will also visit the local woods to collect, explore and learn about woodland life. We will have a camp fire snack and a packed lunch.
Our Adventure tribe children are in store for an action-packed session. Activities we offer are bushcraft such as whittling, sawing, drilling, fire lighting, tree climbing to name a few. Our sessions are skills based where the children learn about plants and foraging, outdoor cooking, shelter building, woodwork and learning about the natural world through practical hands-on experiences. We start our sessions at the base camp and explore the surrounding woodlands to gather resources for our activities.

Join us for a unique party experience for your child (or even for you!)
A typical party will last 2 and a half hours and will be action packed to keep the guests having fun and learning new skills.
a typical party could include team games, learning the art of fire lighting and take part in a woodwork project. Other opportunities can include sawing, using palm drills or whittling. If scavenger hunts, map reading or obstacle courses are more your thing we are pros at that too!
We could visit the local woods where we will learn about wildlife, plants and trees.
We like to end off the party with campfire cooking. Think marshmallows and hot chocolate or if you are more of a Savoury then popcorn or hotdogs.
Other activities can include potion making and muddy kitchen fun. Nature craft and party games. There is something for all ages.
Get in touch with us to plan your perfect party or event.
