Half term is nearly here, and if you’re looking for fun things to do with the kids, there’s plenty of fun to be had at WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre, where they can join in with Bing’s Nature Explorers’ activities.
From 25 May – 2 June, WWT Slimbridge are offering an opportunity for children to get up close to nature with exciting Bing-themed experiences including a self-guided activity trail, mini-shows, character appearances and storytelling sessions.
‘Bing’s Nature Explorers’ can grab a map and take part in a fun-filled activity trail featuring the stars of the multi-award winning children’s TV series. Helping little ones learn more about the wetland nature and wildlife, Bing and friends appear on colourful signposts that challenge the children to discover the amazing natural world surrounding them at WWT Slimbridge.
With spring in full effect, the youngsters will relish in the outdoor adventure and be thrilled to see all the new life around them including goslings, ducklings, kingfishers, cranes and even the world’s rarest goose - while they explore over 100 acres of wetland paradise in Gloucestershire.
Children are also invited to listen to a Bing story read by a member of the WWT team, from a beloved HarperCollins book, in one of the Bing interactive storytelling sessions that will be held every day during Half Term at 12:45pm.

Gary Haseley-Nejrup, Centre Manager at WWT Slimbridge said: “Children love to see their favourite TV characters and Bing’s Nature Explorer’s activities is proving very popular for us this spring. Of course, all good things sadly do come to an end, and with the activities finishing after half term we really encourage parents and guardians to make the most of the opportunity for their children to join us to explore the wetlands with Bing.”
There’s no extra cost for children to participate in these fantastic activities. Bing’s Nature Explorer’s trail, mini-shows, character appearances and storytelling sessions are all included in the centre’s admission ticket and free to WWT members.
