East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s countryside access team is running the popular Kids Go Wild discovery days once again this summer.
Families can enjoy exploring the brilliant habitats and wildlife on the local nature reserves with the team.
Join in and be assured that you will be kept safe and distanced while enjoying the animal trails, safaris and arty activities.
On Tuesday, 3 August, join in with the Bumble Bee Safari at Beverley Parks Local Nature Reserve. Come and explore the reserve on a new bee adventure trail. See how many bumble bees and honey bees you can spot pollinating the flowers in the orchard. Discover more about our important buzzing friends, and enjoy making a crafty bee with Michele Davy to take home.
Get creative during the Woodland Art event at Humber Bridge Country Park Local Nature Reserve on Tuesday, 10 August. Explore the woods and meadows of the reserve and show off your artistic skills using natural materials. Be inspired by the world around you, and create your masterpiece under the magnificent trees.
You may like to go on a minibeast hunt too, and have a really close look at some beautiful bugs and boggle-eyed beasties! Your woodland art can even feature an imaginative clay creature, with multiple legs and extra-long antennae! Tutored by Michele Davy.
Go on a Pond Safari on Tuesday, 17 August at Eastrington Ponds Local Nature Reserve. Discover the creatures living in the pond, take part in pond dipping, and afterwards enjoy environmental art activities with Michele Davy.
If you are a family who loves an adventure then join Rusticus on the Magical Kingdom Adventure Trail on Tuesday, 24 August at Humber Bridge Country Park Local Nature Reserve. The fairies are causing mischief and the enchanted trees of the Humber Bridge Country Park need your help. Your journey will take you to the hidden corners of the park where you will follow the clues, enjoy puzzles and activities, and even meet the king and queen of the fairies!
