As regular readers will know, we’re big fans of our National Trust days out. We’re lucky in that we have plenty of places to explore around us, being so central, and so we’re still enjoying getting out and about discovering new ones every few weeks. When I spotted that Hanbury Hall had a teddy bear event on, I knew that is was a good day to go and play!
The hall and gardens were beautiful…
And with Little Man armed with his bear, we were ready!
We had to find 10 teddy bear pictures and answers questions about each one. They were all dotted about in the grounds, so we darted this way and that, checking our handy little map.
Boo loved finding them all, with her bear being cuddled throughout! When we’d completed the trail, we rounded off our trip with the play area, our bears looking on, of course….
Simple fun, with plenty of running around a fresh air. We all loved our day out.
I love the idea of a Teddy Bear Trail. It looks a fun day out 🙂
I loved seeing both of the kids clutching their bears tightly, while they did the trail – it was lovely 🙂
Brilliant idea to keep kids entertained at a place they might find not that exciting. I think I’d love to do that myself 🙂
It was great! They always love just tearing around the grounds and gardens anyway, but this made it that bit more special for them 🙂
You’ve reminded me that we used to go there a lot with my daughter but have yet to take my son-we must go! Looks a lot of fun and I love Boo’s face with her teddy next to the picture 🙂
I love that shot, too She loved taking her bear around with her, as she flew from picture to picture! Hope you enjoy your next trip there 🙂
Sounds like such a lovely day and what a great idea for the kids to find all of the teddies! So cute with them taking their teddies too 🙂 xx #whatsthestory

It was a fun day. The kids loved it 🙂
That teddy bear trail looks fantastic! And yet another NT property! I am right now going to look at NT membership!! x
Yay, go check it out!
That sounds great fun, love the idea of running around looking for pictures of bears, while clutching your own bear 🙂
It was very sweet 🙂
What a wonderful time you all had Jocelyn. I love that little man and boo took their bears with them, that’s just lovely – and very wise too. The National Trust really are great for these kind of trials, we always enjoy them too. Lovely post, thank you so much for sharing with #whatsthestory and sorry to be so late commenting!
They’re brilliant for things like this, and the gardens are always beautiful to run around in and enjoy 🙂 Thanks for hosting x
