A survey recently conducted on behalf of the National Trust has revealed that children are spending 60 per cent less time engaging with nature than their parents did at the same age. Give your brood a taste of the wild life this August courtesy of Prior Park’s daily Wild About Summer nature trails, each and every one of which provides a voyage of exploration into the great outdoors against one of the most beautiful backdrops in the West. Let the little ones dig, splash, create, find and explore to their heart’s content – after all that, just think of how easy talking them into an early night will be!
