Nature & Nurture: Shelter Building in Gnomes Wood

There’s no place like gnome…. yet!

Step into the enchanted world of Gnome Wood and help us build cosy woodland shelters for our tiniest forest friends!

This creative outdoor event invites children and families to work together using natural materials—twigs, leaves, moss, bark, and more—to design and construct gnome-sized hideaways nestled among the trees.

Whether you’re a seasoned den-builder or brand new to woodland play, this is a chance to explore, create, and connect in a calm, welcoming environment. We’ll provide gentle guidance, sensory-friendly materials, and plenty of space for imagination to flourish.

🪵 Build solo, in pairs, or as a family team
🎨 Decorate your shelter with nature finds or fairy flair
📖 Add a story, name, or message for your gnome guests
🌿 Optional quiet corners and grounding activities available

This event is part of our ongoing mission to make Rainbow’s End a place of wonder, wellbeing, and connection for all.

All ages and abilities welcome. Dress for the weather and bring your curiosity!
