What it is

Get outside, get muddy, and get adventurous — nature play is calling.

Join nature play experts Om and Harry for a hands-on morning of outdoor adventure designed for whānau who love to explore, create, and get a little bit muddy together. Adventurous Winter Nature Play is a guided, family-friendly session set in our local parks — with plenty of room for kids and parents to follow their own curiosity along the way.

The morning kicks off with stick games at base camp before heading out on a guided bush adventure to discover edible and useful plants. From there it's camp building with tarps and hammocks, a lunch break, and mud play — sculpting or pinch pot making — before returning to base for final games to close out the adventure.

Bring sturdy shoes, a packed lunch, and a change of clothes. You will need them.

All ages and abilities welcome. Free, smoke-free, and proudly supported by Maungakiekie-Tāmaki Local Board.
