About this event

    Calling all mini-wildlife explorers...Little Bugs is here! Come and join us for a fun morning of exploration and discovery here on the wonderful nature reserve at the Wildlife Trust Countryside Centre, Ramsey Heights.

    This group is for pre-school children and encourages outdoor play and discovery. As it's the school holidays, bring older siblings too! The aim is to build confidence of being in the outdoors for both children and their guardians and to connect with your local nature reserve. Enjoy crafts, story time and play in outdoors in this lovely location.

    Proposed schedule (subject to change)

    • 5th June - World Ocean Day. Make your favourite ocean animals from recycled materials.
    • 12th June - 30 Days Wild. It's the week to move in nature so try some wildlife yoga with us!
