Outdoor Adventures at Inspire Leisure Holiday ParksÂ
Nature Scavenger Hunt Inspire Leisure Holiday Parks are surrounded by beautiful natural landscapes, making them perfect for a nature scavenger hunt. Create a list of items commonly found in nature, such as a pinecone, a feather, or a specific type of leaf. Give each child a list and a bag to collect their treasures. This activity encourages exploration and helps children connect with nature.Â
Geocaching Many of our parks are located near geocaching trails. Geocaching is a modern-day treasure hunt using GPS devices or smartphones. It’s a fun way to explore new areas and keep kids engaged.Â
Bug Safari Equip your children with magnifying glasses and bug catchers, and let them search for insects around the park. Remember to teach them about respecting wildlife and releasing any bugs they find.Â
