TELL ME MORE...

Nature Nuts helps children get closer to the nature right on their own doorstep. Our sessions are mini adventures bringing in sight, sound, touch and sometimes smell. Play sessions are divided into bite-sized chunks of activity, crafts, stories, games, singingand seasonal nature discovery, in a comfortable setting.

We've got some great nature-themed boredom busters for children to take home and use in the garden, or park, and inside (or outside) on a rainy day. Nature Nuts invites you to share your child's fascination with the natural world and meet some likeminded parents and carers too. Come and have some fun!

We spend time outside together and get really close up to nature. Best of all, we meet wildlife and explore nature and its facsinating objects too!

Sir David Attenborough [newspaper interview 2010]

"It is my belief that there is barely a child born into this world that is not initially interested in nature and other creatures"
