About this Event
Buggin' About is expanding! New to 2026 is our Tuesday sessions. These are ideal for childminders but also suitable for individuals who can't make our Friday sessions.
Does your little one like to explore? Are they fascinated by nature? Do they love nothing more than being outdoors?
Our pre-school nature sessions give your little ones time to explore and learn all about nature. With a mud kitchen for messy play, firepit for group fun, themed craft activities for imaginative fun, there is so much to do at Buggin' About. Each session we have a new nature theme to help shape your little one's learning about the wonderful world in which they live. Our nature activities cater for all areas of children's development as well as giving them precious time together with friends in our beautiful centre grounds. Buggin' About ... where nature and adventure combine.
