🌿✨ We’re heading to Wealden Festival! ✨🌿

We’re delighted to be joining this year’s Wealden Festival with our hands-on creative woodworking experiences!

Come and build with us using reclaimed wood, real tools, imagination and a healthy dose of creativity. Whether you’re creating a woodland creature, a speedy vehicle, a quirky invention or something completely unique, every build becomes a special keepsake to take home.

🪵 Real tools
🌱 Reclaimed materials
🔨 Hands-on making
💡 Creative problem solving
🎨 Freedom to create your own way

At Seed of Play, we believe that when children build with their own two hands, they’re building far more than wood. They’re building confidence, resilience, creativity and pride in what they’ve created.

We can’t wait to meet new families, reconnect with familiar faces and spend the day creating, building and making memories together.

Come and find us, get stuck in, and take home something you made yourself!

⚡🔨 A little magic, a lot of creativity, and some very proud young builders!

We had the best time bringing the building fun to ’s Harry Potter-themed retreat, where children used real tools and recycled wood to build their very own wooden keepsake boxes. 🪵✨

It was wonderful to see how focused, engaged, and genuinely happy everyone was as they measured, drilled, screwed, decorated, and brought their creations to life. The concentration, creativity, and sense of achievement in the room was incredible to witness.

Thank you to the amazing team at for inviting us to be part of such a special day. 💛

It was such a joy to watch families sit down and hang out together, wood & tools, crafts and quirkiness... creativity blooming from every corner. ✨

No right or wrong, no need to be perfect or compare, just wholesome fun, turning humble pre-loved wood into meaningful memories in the sun. 🌞
