Activities

Let your imagination run wild as you design and build your very own woodland hideout! Using our den building kit — complete with netting, clips, and rope — plus plenty of wood from our dedicated den building area, you’ll create a shelter fit for any explorer.

Work together to plan, design and construct a shelter sturdy enough to withstand the elements (and maybe even a surprise water test!). It’s all about problem-solving, teamwork, and a dash of friendly competition — who can build the best hideaway in the woods? Perfect for explorers who love getting hands-on with nature!
