A must for a party that's a bit different!

After searching for something a bit different and outdoorsy, we booked Bushcraft for our daughter's 10th birthday with her 12 friends.

The team were so helpful throughout every communication and when torrential rain meant they had to cancel, they had to cancel. They were so flexible in organising it for the following day and despite our instructor being ill, it was seamlessly transferred to another instructor.

The girls absolutely loved every second of the day, from den building (with some healthy competition!), bow and arrow making and fire starting to bug-eating and toasting marshmallows! Our instructor was superb with them all, making it so engaging and fun and all with the patience of a saint when dealing with thirteen 9/10 year old girls!

My only issue was there wasn't enough time to fit everything in! Parents were so complementary of the party idea and everyone had a great time!

Brilliant Birthday Bushcraft!

It was a truly wonderful 6th birthday party – the pitch was great and the children loved all the activities. There was a great mix of children doing individual things, adults needing to help, group work and games. The activities were well-resourced meaning even when a few things broke, there were spares so children weren’t left disappointed. Despite the cold weather they were all up for everything, laughing and having the best time.
The instructors were both great, bringing a great sense of fun and safety to it all. They explained everything to the children and helped everyone who needed it.
For a week now I have had parents and children come up to me to say what a great party it was. One even said ‘we’ve set the new standard!’. Really pleased we took a gamble on doing bushcrafts outside in January. It was a huge success - two very happy birthday boys, group of friends and parents!

AMAZING

Wow wow wow…words cannot describe how incredible this party was…it absolutely exceeded our expectations. Our party host Nanou was amazing, she kept the children entertained & engaged, she threw in some fun and exciting survival stories and skills and the highlight for me was seeing kids being kids… getting muddy and dirty and loving every minute of it…they even enjoyed the big eating! The whole experience from start to finish was professional, efficient and easy! Highly recommended

My son wanted an outdoors experience for his 8th birthday party, despite it being in the winter, and Bushcraft Parties were brilliant. From the staff answering the emails and sorting out logistics to Dan, our 'Bushcrafter', everyone was professional and focused on delivering a great experience for the kids. They made shelters, bows & arrows, toasted marshmallows and to the amazement and delight of many of the kids they were given flints and shown how to strike it to make a flame. I am sure many of them had not done this before and Dan was very observant to those struggling and needing a bit of encouragement and when to move on. Despite the winter weather we hd a great time. Thanks.

Best birthday ever

We celebrated my son's 8th birthday with Bushcraft Parties. It was such a differentiated, fun experience for him and his friends. We made bows and arrows, built a shelter, had a tug of war and lots more! Zeke, the animator, was amazing and despite the rather cold weather not a single child complained. It was a full success!

Absolutely amazing party!

The party run by Mo from Bushcraft was absolutely amazing! Honestly the best kids party and many many happy children ages 4-6. Mo was on time, well prepared, and captivated the attention and imagination of 16 excitable boys. They made bows and arrows, a den, a fire and toasted marshmallows around it, before enjoying a tug of war with the children of course beating their parents (kids are strong!). Mo was absolutely wonderful, I will definitely do another party with Bushcraft.

Fabulous party with Bushcraft Parties

My son had a fabulous party with Bushcraft parties. Alexei was quick to respond to my emails and very amenable to all my requests. The instructor, Nick, had lots of energy and patience, and the children did a range of activities from den-building to bow and arrow making, all in the great outdoors! A different experience to your typical village hall shindig, and some children even said it was the best party they’d ever been to! Highly recommend!

Outstanding party for kids

If I could give double the stars I would. This was the best birthday party ever with all children fully engaged in outdoor activities and games. Even adults couldn’t help but take part. The organiser is extremely supportive from the initial enquiry until the very end. The best party ever and I will be surely recommending this to others. Alexei and Tano - thank you for making my birthday girls so happy on the day

My son celebrated his 8th birthday with a bushcraft party and they all had an amazing time. Jo was the monitor and she was fantastic, prepared a lot of nice and fun activities and the kids were very engaged, even ate some bugs! Alexei, the company owner, is really good and helpful too. Great and fun party!

I found Bushcraft Parties via a google search and they were extremely easy to communicate with and made it simple to organise a party in Battersea Park. The party was to celebrate a 4th birthday and in attendance were around 16 children and various siblings. Mo (our instructor) was excellent, brought all the equipment he needed, plenty of outdoor fun was had and all with health & safety in mind. Bow and arrow making, marshmallow toasting and a great tug-o-war. The children were very attentive to the instructions and had a wonderful time thanks to Mo. All the information sent beforehand by Alexei was helpful and ensured that organising the event was straightforward. A memorable day for all attending and would highly recommend for children 4 years and upwards. The parents attending also enjoyed the tug-o-war!

Birthday Party

From the initial communications regarding planning and organizing, all the way to the actual day of the party we were assisted professionally and yet friendly. The event was a major success among our little guests (and the parents loved it, too!). Would definitely suggest this to anyone keen on a fun, outdoor experience for kids.

Very fun!

We didn’t know quite what to expect but it was amazing how engaging the activities were for a group of 4-5 yr olds. They were gathering leaves, building dens, roasting marshmallows, and the bow & arrow was an absolute hit.

Great 6th birthday party in the forest

Our son Lucas loved his 6th birthday bushcraft party in the forest on Sunday. Tano handled the 15 children ranging from 5 - 7 years old brilliantly, keeping them fully entertained for 2 hours with a range of buchcraft related games and activities. Making the bows and arrows was definitely the biggest hit but our guests loved all the games.
