Guided Toddler Walk
The guided group toddler walks will take families on a short walk; to experience nature and allow little ones to roam and explore at their own pace.
- Booking essential
This is an opportunity for little ones to try walking on different surfaces for a sensory experience. These walks are guided but will be led by the little adventurers, together we might spend time looking for leaves, playing pooh sticks or watching wildlife. These walks will go ahead in most weather conditions, as even the pouring rain can reveal wonders for the sights and senses.
The walk will last for between 30-45 minutes, and toddlers will be able to walk and explore at their own pace. We recommend that where possible pushchairs are left in the pushchair storage which is in the Pre-loved Bookshop.
New for 2025 we have introduced optional nature themed activities:
10th March – Nature Scavenger Hunt. 31st March – Nature Crown. 12th May – Sound Walk. 19th May – Leaf Kebab. 16th June – Colours in Nature. 14th July – Journey Sticks.
Admission charges do not apply. Due to how popular these walks have been we ask visitors to pre-book tickets. Please book a ticket per child. Adults do not require a ticket.
