October Half Term Promises a Week of Super Natural Activities at WWT Llanelli

Families can tap into the magic that’s all around them at WWT Llanelli Wetland Centre this October half term, where wand making, potion crafting and spell casting are just a few of the mystical activities that will keep curious minds bewitched.

The week-long Spells and Potions holiday event promises unique activities that can involve everyone, from grandparents to toddlers. It includes making a willow wand, micro magic, brewing a potion or casting a spell using materials found outdoors, and hunting for fungi amongst the autumn leaves. All in the enchanting world of WWT Llanelli’s wetland nature.

Little witches and wizards are invited to join in an owl pellet examination that will show them first-hand how these nocturnal birds of prey live and what they eat for breakfast.

Enjoying a week of super natural activities in wetland nature will be made easy with a free WWT Llanelli Spells and Potions logbook that can be picked up on arrival. Capturing the memories being made, it includes a guide to all the activities on offer and a handy space to write down spooky spells and ‘super natural’ potion recipes.

Jessica Thompson, spokesperson at WWT Llanelli, said: “This October half term we have a bunch of super natural activities for a fun-filled week of adventure. Whether it’s mixing up mystical concoctions or making your own magical wand for spell casting, we’re bubbling over with activities and here to share how super wetlands nature can be.”

“Providing the perfect backdrop for a spell-binding half term there’s also an opportunity to explore the hidden creatures that live underwater with some pond dipping. There’s simply lots for the whole family to explore in the outdoors .”

All activities are included in the WWT Llanelli admission ticket or are free to WWT members. Visitors booking online in advance can also take advantage of a 10% reduction off the WWT wetland centre’s ticket prices.
