🌳 What is Mini Explorers Club?We are an adhoc art & nature activity club where your children can come to take part in natural arts and crafts and learn about all of the wonderful things in nature. Each session will include a natural craft activity, which the children will be able to take home with them at the end, and a themed nature learning activity.
-
🌳 How can we pay?You can book adhoc on the day for a fixed price or purchase a pass for a certain amount of sessions, which will work out at a lower hourly price.
-
🌳What age is Mini Explorers Club for?Anyone can come to our Stay with Me sessions. They are suitable for up to 8 years of age. Pre-walking siblings are free when accompanying a full paying child. Our Drop me off sessions are suitable for ages 2-8 years. Our Big Kid Saturdays (running the first Saturday of every month) are suitable for ages 3-8.

🌳Are you open in the holidays?Mini Explorers Club sessions are term-time only, during school hours with the exception of our Big Kid Saturdays which are held on one Saturday of every month (keep an eye out for which Saturday on our social media and website).

🌳Who runs the club?We are two local mums who have 5 kids between us (ranging from 4 months to 6 years). Four of our children attend the local school and nursery. One of us has a Primary Post Graduate Certificate of Education and the other has an Art Diploma, so Mini Explorers combines both of our interests and expertise.
