Crafty Plants, Pots & Bugs - Activity Day

Crafty Plants & Pots

One for the green fingered crafters! We will be making and decorating a selection of different sized plant pots with paint, felt, wool, and lots of other scrap goodies, ready for you to take home and fill with flowery goodness! We’ll also make some colourful scrap flowers & bugs to fill them up, and as well as our crafty faux-flowers, each child will plant their own (real) spider plant into one of their newly created plant pots to take home and look after!

Throughout the day, we’ll take regular breaks to visit our loose parts area, where we can burn off some energy while building ball runs, dens, and much more. We’ll also head out for a short walk in the beautiful countryside around us, and collect some plants and wild flowers to draw and use in crafts and as inspiration so please make sure to bring a coat and appropriate footwear.

We’ll also find time to enjoy a few team games, tasty snacks, and a delicious lunch.
