Top things to try from the ‘50 things to do before you’re 11¾’ list:
No. 1 Get to know a tree (hide)
Disappear from view in our secret tree hide, deep in the Kings Walk wood. Are you brave enough to climb to the top?
No. 9 Eat a picnic in the wild
You are welcome to picnic anywhere in our gardens; there are some lovely picnic tables in our farmyard, or why not find a spot in the meadow?
Our tearoom offers takeaway hot and cold drinks, snacks, cakes and bakes so don't worry if you forgot to pack a treat or two - we have you covered!
No. 13 Make a mud creation
In the woods there is a great mud pie making kitchen waiting for very creative cooks. There are plenty of pots and pans and water to make your mud!
No. 18 Create some wild art
Let nature inspire you - why not make a frame using sticks then fill in your 'canvas' with natural materials you find on our woodland floor.
Don't forget to share your creations with us on our social media pages - we love to see what you have been up to!
No. 31 Make friends with a bug
There are lots of bugs to find around Moseley. Why not lead your very own bug hunting expedition? Listen to what you can hear buzzing in the meadow and see what creepy crawlies you can discover in the woods.
