23rd May, 12:00 pm - 30th Sep 2026, 12:00 pm
Join us in the reception area of our events chalet to colour in a Winnie-the-Pooh themed colouring sheet, which will be inserted into your plant pot. Our events team will then help you plant some seeds and you will be able to take this home to watch grow!
After you've finished crafting your plant pot, help us celebrate the 100th anniversary of Winnie-the-Pooh in our woods! Children will receive a themed activity sheet and follow a charming story through the woods. Simply read along with Winnie-the-Pooh’s adventure and write the correct answers to the questions as you go. Complete the quest and, just like Pooh finding his honey pot, a small gift awaits at the end. Simply show your completed activity sheet to a member of our team as you exit. Oh bother… you won’t want to miss it!
Picture-Perfect Moments Around Every Tree! Our woods are bursting with delightful, Insta-worthy scenes! Strike a pose with Pooh and friends, hop through our Peter Rabbit–inspired tunnel, and keep your eyes peeled—you may just bump into Paddington! Don’t forget to snap a picture with our colourful Care Bears too. Share your adventures using #gkwoods and let the memories grow!

Our woodland walk may be difficult for wheelchairs & pushchairs. Please wear suitable clothing and footwear as our woodland walk is outside and will operate in all weathers. Pushchair parking is available. Our woods are not actually 100 acres long, the title of this event is inspired by Winnie the Pooh. It is correx cut out photo opportunities with the Winnie-the-Pooh characters, Care Bears, Paddington and Peter Rabbit etc. We advise bringing your own pen or pencil to complete the activity sheet.
Only the £3 child tickets and tickets where the child crafts their own plant pot get a small gift if completing the activity sheet.
