Discover and explore new ways of looking with author of the National Trust 'Look What I Found' series Moira Butterfield published by Nosy Crow.
During this one-hour walk around the Pleasure Garden you'll make stops along the way to spot different things and safely collect bits and pieces such as nuts, leaves and fallen bark to your collector bags to create rubbings.
This walk is ideal for children aged 3-6 accompanied by parents/guardians, but suitable for all.
There is an option to purchase the book Look What I Found in the Woods when booking for £13 per child, or £5 per child without the book.
