Messy Play Mondays
Monday is definitely bath night! These days are all about muck, mud and mess so old clothes are a good idea. We’ve mud art and water play to get stuck into and don’t miss the mud café where we’ll be making smelly cocktails!

Develop your bush craft skills and have fun building a shelter, or get messy doing some leaf art.
Active Wednesdays
