Junior Gardening at St Michael's Mount
Junior gardeners are invited to join the gardening team at St Michael's Mount garden. Families can learn about the lush sub-tropical garden and kids can pot-up a sempervivum, commonly known as the houseleek, or the ‘liveforever’. Children can enjoy getting their hands dirty and then take the plant home with them so they can watch it grow.

Children's Activities at Bude & Stratton Folk Festival
Bude & Stratton Folk Festival is a small and friendly festival. Activities include music, song, dance, and storytelling, and other children’s events. There are concerts, sing-arounds, sessions, a folk club, a barn dance, open-mics, fringe events, a folk service and workshops.

Meet Paddington at Lappa Valley
Enjoy a steam ride into the leisure park and have fun playing crazy golf, on the canoeing lake, in the toddler path maze and indoor play carriages and much more. Paddington Bear will make appearances on the 30th and 31st of May at East Wheal Rose, so make sure you bring your camera for some magical memories!

Paradise Park’s Dinosaur Quiz Trail
In between meeting the birds in the aviaries and at the free flying shows, you can explore the grounds on your own dinosaur expedition. Have fun hunting for dinosaur eggs and answering questions to get the special ‘Paradise Park Professor of Palaeontology’ certificate! Don't miss Eagles of Paradise Display (weather permitting) and the indoor JungleBarn play area.
