Join Baxter Bear on a whistle-stop tour of the UK as he uses his compass to find the capital cities, learning about the UK’s surrounding seas in this fun-filled adventure.
Picking up postcards on the way, the children will join the facilitator (and Baxter) on an imaginary journey to London, Edinburgh, Belfast and Cardiff to learn about life around the UK. They will re-enact the Edinburgh tattoo, take a ferry to Belfast, and experience the thrill of the rugby pitch at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium, before returning home with a bag full of souvenirs and a taste for adventure!
We were impressed with how engaged the children were and how much was covered in the time.
