Child & Family Centres - Little Explorers

Back to Activities

Play and explore the outdoors with a weekly woodland wander in Oaks Wood in Cambourne, with fun and engaging activities for children up to 5 years of age.

This activity is good for wellbeing because

  • meeting other parents and carers and sharing experiences is reassuring and reduces isolation;
  • outdoor play and activities improves motor skills as well as supporting emotional and social development;
  • fresh air and a walk is a great stress buster!

What to expect

Play and activities in the woods, whatever the weather! Please come prepared for the conditions on the day (bring or wear suncream, waterproof clothing, hats and suitable footwear).

Children do need to be supervised but you can still meet/chat with other parents/carers.
