Looking for ways to fill the holidays with fresh air, adventure and a little bit of magic? Step outside and discover something new each time you visit the Garden these holidays. From self-guided exploring to hands-on play and creative moments, there’s plenty to keep kids curious, active and coming back for more.

Tree Hugger Trail: A fun, free, self-guided trail where kids and families can explore the Garden at their own pace and uncover some fascinating facts about our magnificent trees along the way.

Dig n’ Play: Kids can boost creativity, confidence and connection to the outdoors while diving into muddy nature play (mud pies) and building their own mini self-watering veggie garden to take home and nurture

Wild Games and Beginner’s Bushcraft: An afternoon of outdoor games and bushcraft fun, where kids can build skills in nature awareness and learn the basics of wilderness survival.

Budding Bookworms: Settle in under the Sydney Red Gum for stories, craft and quiet creative time. A relaxed, free drop-in session perfect for winding down.
