A colorful illustration features two cartoon kittens, one grey and one black, surrounded by blooming pink flowers on tree branches. The title "Scrap and Fig’s Search for Spring" is written in bold black letters on a light blue background. Below, a green text box reads: "Can you help Scrap and Fig check off the first signs of spring in the Walled Garden at Attingham Park?" The design is playful and inviting, suggesting a spring-themed activity or story. — Scrap and Fig’s Search for Spring | © National Trust

Natural play

As you head around the park you'll find lots of natural play to keep little (and not so little) ones entertained. From fallen tree trunks to muddy paths and logs over the stream at the top of the Mile Walk there are various spots to be found. Children must be supervised at all times.

Sensory bags

We have three sensory bags and ear defenders available for loan during a visit and these can be signed out/in at Visitor Reception. The items in the bags were suggested by a group of young people from Autism West Midlands.

We hope they can help visitors with autism, sensory processing disorder, or those who think they would benefit from them, during a visit to Attingham.
