Muddy Buddies

Description:

What we are about?

We create opportunities for parents and children to have fun together in the Great Outdoors!

Dunbar has a wonderfully rich variety of outdoor spaces to discover and explore. From beaches to cliffs, woodlands, parks, farms and hills - we are blessed with pretty much everything that we need, right here on our doorstep.

That said, sometimes we need a push to remind us to take it outside and do some running around. We often talk about our own childhoods - running wild, climbing trees and coming home with skinned knees and mud on our faces. Let's make sure that we give our kids, and ourselves, the chance to enjoy that fresh air and nature again.

Who is it for and how much?

Children who are of a pre-school age and their parents, sessions will be on  Mondays between 10.30am to 1pm.  £4 per child, per session - carers are free but there's a donation tin for the refreshments. This money is to pay for essential equipment and to cover weekly running costs, mainly biscuits. On your second visit, we will ask you to register* your family for the year - this is a fee of £10 but all of it goes towards the maintenance of the woodland for the whole community.

We meet at the Gathering Place on the corner of Kellie Road and Middlemas Road.
Please park mindfully and stay away from the junction.
To give you an ideas of activities, see below.
In warm weather we include wet play or mud kitchen
Hammocks in the trees
Food cooked over the fire
Giant bubbles
Stories round the hearth
Refreshments
We also make some chai over the fire - something to warm us all up in cold weather.
