Why is Weird and Wonderful Wood great for families? Because you can learn to hula hoop, build with clay, make a den, join in with drumming, do a willow workshop, make a mini garden, try archery, use a spoke shave, build with scrap wood, make a puppet, hear a story, watch a show, whittle a spoon, test your strength, climb a tree with Monkey Do, play giant games, find out what the Tortoise Taught Us, meet a fairy, see a mechanical dragon, and make friends with a cavewoman! And more!

Once you’ve paid to get in, all the activities are free!

Weird and Wonderful Wood is an annual experience not to be missed. For those who love wood, those fascinated by the beauty of wood, and beautiful wooden objects, it is a rare chance to see how objects are made and an opportunity to try making things.
