Dear Reader, Wise words

The sights, scents and sounds of Mother Nature are in full swing right now and there is no excuse not to get outside in the fresh air and do something as a family. This issue is packed full of ideas to get everyone outdoors, including the return of the annual Midsummer Fair in Cambridge on the 21st June. This ancient fair has been visiting the city’s Midsummer Common for over 800 years, making it one of the country’s oldest travelling fun fairs.

Another way to get up close and personal with the countryside this spring is to visit one of the many farms across the country who will be opening their gates to welcome the public for Open Farm Sunday - a great way for children to find out more about where their food comes from and talk to the farmers who produce it.
