Woodland Fairy Tea-party
Do you have a forest fairy-loving child? We invite the group to build little fairy homes made out of natural materials and clay. The children craft their own floral crowns, fairy wands and nature potions with precious stones and natural treasures to take the magic home with us! Along with our muddy kitchen, hammock swing and slacklines – the enchanted forest awaits!
Forest Music Celebration
We at Nature Plays think nature and music are an awesome combo! Kids make their own musical instruments out of 100% recycled materials to take home, and we put on a musical show together. We experiment with sound and play games like musical statues. We have a special guest join us to sing and play songs on the guitar and create a forest band with the kids!
Bootcamp Survivor Adventure
What is better than a jungle bootcamp party for energetic kids?! Join the dynamic Nature Plays crew and have fun in one or more teams, building awesome forest forts! We play tug-of-war, paint our own fabric team flags to take home, camouflage our faces and climb obstacles. With the forest as the playground and some healthy competition, this party is the perfect birthday celebration for a lively group!
Build-A-Bug Party
Does your child love creepy-crawly creatures and being outdoors? Come celebrate their birthday and discover insects from our forest environment! Kids can build creative bug hotels, go on explorative bug walks with magnifying glasses, experience a bug hunt with plastic models of creepy-crawlies, and learn all about their favourite bugs. We make our own clay bug creations to take home!
Jungle Animal Explorer
Welcome to the jungle safari adventure! We offer an awesome animal-themed scavenger treasure hunt, where the party group can work as a team to find clues and complete exciting obstacles to find the treasure. The kids design their own jungle animal masks so they can get creative and be their favourite animal! They can make safari binoculars out of 100% recycled materials to take home.
Water Party
We believe nothing beats a day in the river! We offer a safe and fun space for children to engage in water play and river exploration at a birthday party. Whether the children are slacklining across the stream or learning about river creatures by gently catching and releasing them with nets – it’s a lot of fun! Our muddy kitchen equipment is wonderful for free imaginative play, and we also teach kids to build their own mini river rafts. Boat-racing, bridge-building and muddy feet guarantee an enjoyable birthday party!
Seeds: DIY paint pots!
Come and celebrate your child’s birthday by exploring and learning about the fun world of seeds! Children paint and decorate their own pots, and plant indigenous seeds to take them home and watch them grow. The kids discover a wide collection of seeds, and go on a seed walk to find their own seeds. We learn about indigenous trees and make our own leaf necklaces.
Flower Power
Nature is full of colour and wonder! The Flower Power party features a rainbow walk and a flower pounding experience where kids imprint leaves and flowers into fabric to take home something creative and memorable. Another art opportunity is colourful light lanterns. We offer an experience for kids to taste some edible flowers and plants.
