NATURE MAKERS

Big Nature Play Days are designed for children aged 18 months to 11 years, though older and younger siblings are often welcome. They provide a relaxed, child-led environment where families can move between activities at their own pace.​ Hosted by Nature Makers is a vibrant, outdoor-focused event. Pop-up events are held during school holidays and feature a variety of hands-on stations that encourage exploration, imagination, and environmental awareness.​
