KENT LIFE CRACKS OPEN AN EASTER FULL OF FUN

IT’ S A BUMPER EASTER FOR VISITORS TO KENT LIFE HERITAGE FARM PARK, NEAR MAIDSTONE – INCLUDING THE FIRST EVER APPEARANCE AT THE AWARD-WINNING ATTRACTION BY CHILDREN’ S FAVOURITE, SOOTY.
Over the weekend of 1st and 2nd April, Sooty will appear in the Big Top with three shows each day. Other Big Top events throughout the Easter school holidays include Punch & Judy, Flip the Clown, BubbleJo’ s Bubble Show and a brand-new show – Mr Moo at the Circus.
Easter weekend – from Friday 14th April to Monday 17th April – guarantees a visit from the Easter Bunny with some yummy treats. Indulge your creative streak at the free Easter bonnet making workshops followed by an Easter Parade each day at 3pm and get nostalgic on the traditional fairground rides.
Each day of the school holidays, from Saturday 1st April to Monday 17th April, you can also see amazing daily flying demonstrations from the onsite Kent Owl Academy, and, depending on the weather, enjoy traditional donkey rides, challenging water zorbing or make your way around the site on the brightly coloured land train.
Of course, Kent Life is a farm so now is the time to celebrate the baby boom that comes with spring. Lambs, goat kids, calves and piglets will all be finding their feet in the world and you can even have a go at bottle feeding some of them. Of course, it wouldn’ t be Easter without fluffy chicks so learn how to identify fertilised eggs in the hatchery.
Admission prices are: adults £ 9.95, children( three to 15 years) £ 7.95, concessions £ 8.95, Family Ticket( two adults and two children, or one adult and three children) £ 29.95. Underthrees and members FREE. Annual membership passes are also available. Kent Life is open from 10am to 6pm with last admission at 5pm.
