Wild Days

Fun and learning in the woods for children

In an age of video games, urbanisation and rising obesity, we bring back the spirit of adventure. We teach children to take risks in a safe environment, taking them out in to the woods to get mucky, to learn and to have lots of fun!

About our Wild Days:

Wild Days are fun, exciting days out for children in our beautiful beech woods - often for less than the cost of child care! We run half day, full day & overnight camps, tailor-made for specific age groups, all year round.

There are lots of creative activities, such as: Survival Skills - Wild Crafts - Magical Quests - Fantastic Games - Exploring Nature - Watching Wildlife - Silent Stalking - Making fire - Campfire Songs and much more...
