NEW 2025 Parties in the Park at Ryton Pools Country Park | Ryton Pools Country Park

Jul 26, 2025 (UTC+1)
Coventry
Cultural Experiences
What better way to celebrate a birthday than being in the outdoors. Our Parties in the park may be just what you have been looking for! If you have a birthday coming up, then an outdoor party is a great option. It's perfect for people who love wildlife and the environment, and it’s a wonderful way to get everyone active in the fresh air. Warwickshire’s Country Parks Ranger Service offer a range of action packed and fun outdoor parties with our rangers throughout the year, set in two of Warwickshire’s beautiful Country Parks. No matter what age you are (3 – 103!) It’s a great way to have fun with friends and family. Winter birthday? If you have a winter birthday there's no reason to feel left out – you can wrap up warm and have an outdoor party too as some of our activities will keep you warm and on the move like den building and rocket launching! All of our parties have full private use of our education room, and an outside area for your activity. You are welcome to decorate the room with bunting and balloons etc. We love celebrating birthdays in the parks! If you are interested in having a party to remember, please get in touch! When booking please select 1 activity from the options provided. You can find out more about our parties and download the party information pack by clicking the link below link to the pack - WEB SITE You can find out more information about Farmers Fayre - Ryton pools and the party food menu by clicking on the links below Ryton Pools - Farmers Fayre ranger-menus.pdf Pond dipping - 20 people Max Apr - Oct 5yrs + Going pond dipping and discovering a secret underwater world full of incredible creatures is really exciting for children and adults alike. Ever wondered what’s lurking in the depths of a pond near you? maybe a mysterious alien-like Dragonfly Nymph, or a Great Diving Beetle, or a froglet or two? The rangers will give you an introduction to the pond habitats and food chains, the equipment we use, and how to be safe around the water, before having a go at using dipping nets & trays. We have a pond bingo game too; this will be the final challenge to test your identification skills for the creatures you’ve found, using magnifying pots and ID guides. Before anyone can shout ‘bingo’, teams will need to get four pebbles in a row across down or on the four corners. Den building - 20 People Max All year 5yrs + Building a den is great fun activity for the whole family and with friends of all ages. It’s a wonderful way to spend time together. Kids and adults love competitions, so we split your guests into teams and challenge them to a den-building contest. This activity works well in children's wood where there are lots of cut branches, and hopefully your dens will provide shelter if you get a shower of rain. Make a mini den. This activity is a lovely way for children and adults as well to have a go at den building. Each team simply collects a handful of small sticks and prop them up against a tree trunk or fallen branch to make a mini den. Make the inside of your shelter nice and cosy with some fallen leaves. Now it’s ready for your team mascot. You can do den building at any time of year, but autumn is an ideal time to try it as there are lots of fallen leaves to use. Wild Woods - 20 people Max All yr 3yr + A wild wood party is something really different and great for children of any age from 3 upwards. We turn childrens wood into a birthday wonderland and tailor the activities to suit children’s abilities, interest, and age groups. We plan activities with the seasons that can be done during the colder months too, so there is always an adventure to be had. Minibeast hunting and hotels - 20 People Max Apr - Oct 5yrs + Getting up close to wildlife is really exciting for children and adults alike, you will be exploring woodland and grassland creepy crawlies, from bugs and beetles to snails and centipedes, it’s all really good fun. We hand out bug pots, magnifying glasses and shaker sheets and encourage everyone to look for minibeasts under logs and stones, using a range of ID and spotter sheets to support our spotting too. The session also incorporates creating a recycled mini minibeast hotel / refuge for over wintering bugs. Building a minibeast hotel, wildlife motel or nature stack in your garden can provide a safe hideaway for wildlife and help make use of your garden waste. The simple homes for minibeasts that we make, will provide hidey-holes for creatures galore. All the materials will be provided and by the end of the session everyone should know a little bit more about habitats and the importance of biodiversity. Rockets - 15 People Max All yr 7yrs + Bottle Rockets. Those two simple words turn a party day into one filled with, fun, water, excitement, and laughter. You are all Engineers for the European Space Agency with specialist jobs 'and your birthday challenge with your team is to build and launch simple rockets to deliver vital food, spare parts and medical supplies to the ISS (the International Space Station). To do this you will need to design a rocket to travel the longest distance. You can add different features like fins, nose cones, on board stowaway aliens and go faster stripes! To help us complete the challenge successfully, we will need 4 adults to stay, join in and fill the launch engineer jobs. The more the merrier. Watery sticks, rafts and boats- 15 People Max All yr 7yrs + Making leaf boats and watery rafts is a simple and fun activity that encourages creativity in people of all ages. Whether it be a team boat or raft or an individual effort the session is great fun for all involved All you need is some sticks, string and some added extras from the rangers watery raft treasure box, like pirates, mermaids, mermen, RNLI and watery crew members and you will be well away once the main sail is hoisted! The ranger will guide you, whilst you experiment with different materials and techniques to see which works the best for you and we defiantly have some tips to help you be careful not to make the raft too heavy as this increases the risk of your raft sinking! When we launch the boats and rafts, for an extra bit of fun we can see how fast the rafts go at the end whilst transporting your crew safely across the water... will yours survive?

Sound Bath meditation | Allesley Village Hall

Jul 12, 2025 (UTC+1)ENDED
Coventry
Cultural Experiences
An ideal opportunity to switch off relax and just focus on you, letting any tension or stress disperse, whilst immersing in a tranquil setting of the sounds and vibrations of traditional healing instruments to rebalance and restore. A sound bath is a meditative experience which stimulates brain wave frequencies to create a theta brain wave state (the state of REM sleep). This Theta state is conducive to cellular healing & recalibrates your body and mind. The waves bring your body into a parasympathetic state helping to regulate blood pressure, ease tension, reduce anxiety and simply relax your mind & body to allow you to drift off and wake later fully rested, knowing the sound frequencies have helped stabilise your inner compass. Treat yourself by taking an hour out to delve into a deeper into this blissful state of rest and relaxation. Under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult & be able to tolerate noise vibrations & lie quietly during the session (not suitable for those under 13 years of age) WHAT HAPPENS AT THE SESSION Simply lie down or be seated in a comfortable position snuggle up in your blanket and let yourself drift off allowing the sounds of the traditional healing instruments to wash over you to create a sense of inner calm and tranquillity. A time to practice self-care and compassion, travel inwards and release what no longer serves, enlightening your energetic vibration. Wake later fully rested We begin with a short guided meditation which leads into a wonderful sound bath using a wide variety of instruments such as the Ocean drum, Tibetan and Crystal singing Bowls, Gongs amongst others through which you will experience a variety of vibrations generated in the room. The vibration of the gong is a powerful method for reducing stress, inducing a holistic resonance in the body and a spontaneous meditative state in the mind, leading to a sense of greater awareness and an intense sense of having let go. 60 minutes of pure restorative bliss! No two sound healings are the same nor are two individual experiences but be assured you will leave the session in a more rested and peaceful state of mind. BENEFITS Deep relaxation Stress & anxiety reduction Boosts immunity Relieves Depression Induce deeper consciousness Promotes restful sleep Fatigue reduction Unlocks creativity Pain reduction & much more! **IMPORTANT INFORMATION** Tickets must be purchased prior to attending on a first come first served basis, no drop ins We recognise the unexpected may arise therefore in the unlikely event you are unable to attend a session your ticket may be transferred to another same session type dated within a 2-month period but only where advance cancellation notice more than 4 hours is given.
