Our sessions are designed to immerse children in a vibrant, nature-inspired environment that engages their sensory systems.
The goal of these sessions is to support children’s learning and growth through hands-on interaction with natural elements. Participants will take part in a variety of activities that encourage sensory exploration, allowing them to see, touch, smell, hear, and even taste different aspects of the natural world.
Objectives:
Promote Sensory Development: Offer opportunities for children to engage all five senses—sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell— this is important because our sensory system affects the way we interact with our environment.
Encourage Connection with Nature: Help children develop a greater appreciation for the natural world through hands-on learning experiences.
Support Social Interaction: Enable cooperative play and communication among children as they participate in group activities. Through these sensory-rich experiences in a natural environment, children can build vital skills while benefiting from the therapeutic effects of outdoor play.
Important Notes:
Allergies: We take allergies seriously and will cater to ensure the safety of you and your child. Wild Wanderers is a nut-aware zone.
Supervision: For the safety and well-being of all attendees, it is essential that you supervise your child throughout the event. Please do not leave your children unsupervised at any time.
Small Parts: Some sensory play activities may contain small parts that can be a choking hazard. Please ensure you are watching your little ones closely to avoid putting small parts in their mouth.
What to Bring: Please bring the essentials for yourself and your child - as this session is indoors this could just be a water bottle and a snack (or get one from the café). Your little one might get a bit messy, so be sure to bring a change of clothes for them!
Play with Care: We take pride in providing top-quality toys and resources at Wild Wanderers. We kindly ask you to be mindful of gentle play to prevent any accidental breakages and to check pockets before leaving.
Materials: Non-toxic ingredients are used for all activities, however they are not made to be eaten. Please avoid letting your children consume products.
Prams: London Canteen is pram-friendly.
Toilets: Toilets are available at this location.
Changes: If the session needs to be cancelled for any reason, it will be postponed to a later date. If you’re unable to make it, please let us know as soon as possible so we can give your place to someone else.
