Children can learn more about nature this Easter at Godinton House & Gardens, near Ashford, during a series of workshops and by joining a wild animal tracks trail.
The trail is included with all standard garden entry tickets so families can pick up a trail sheet from the ticket office and start their adventure. When children have discovered the tracks of wild animals that live on Godinton Estate they can claim a prize. The trail runs from Saturday, April 5 to Monday, April 21. Tickets £10.50 for adults, £2.50 for 11-16 and free for under 11s.
Three family workshops for all ages, in association with Kentish Stour Countryside Partnership (KSCP), can also be booked.
