Life is gourd – trick or trEAT, thINK and be SCARY! We’ve got some spook-tacular activities lined up for you over October half term! We hope to see you all dressed up in your fang-tastic Halloween costumes as you creep around the farm and enjoy some spooky Halloween themed fun!
Once Upon a Crime Detective Trail 9.30am to 4.45pm
Look out for the five scenes around the farm and gather the clues to complete the Detective Trail. You’ll need to examine each nursery rhyme crime scene and see what the guilty suspect has left behind – this will be an object that looks out of place within the nursery rhyme crime scene. Write this clue on your evidence sheet and once you have completed all five clues, these should all link to a particular nursery rhyme character! Write your answers and contact details on your evidence sheet, visit the Police Station to post your evidence in the evidence box to be in with a chance of winning a Farmer Experience! This is a fantastic opportunity to have your photo taken too, don’t forget to tag us in your posts on social media!
All budding detectives need a clue to get them started so here’s one for you, you’ll find the five crime scenes in these locations:
- On the walk up to the viewing platform
- Outside the front of the Gift Shop
- Behind the Gift Shop, by the wishing well
- Along Pond Walk
- Along the Farm Trail, next to the pig pens
