How do bats see? Why are most of the little creatures that live in wood and grasslands brown and green? What do seeds need to become plants? How does a food web work? This party is especially suitable for the winter months, to enjoy a range of games that explain concepts of adaptation, camouflage, germination and food chains.
Each party also involves an arts & crafts session so that children can take their creativity home with them.
