The Seashell Garden @ Hylton Castle

Welcome to The Seashell Garden 🌱

Calm, nature-based play sessions for babies and toddlers aged 12 months to 4 years at the stunning venue of Hylton Castle!

Our sessions are small, unhurried and completely child-led. Children explore soil, seeds, shells, pebbles and water alongside their parent or carer in one of South Tyneside's most loved community spaces.

What happens in a session?

Each session follows a gentle nature theme — planting and growing, mud kitchen, leaf printing, water and pebble play and a celebration to finish the block. Every child takes something home from every session.

What to wear and bring

Clothes you don't mind getting muddy — wellies or sturdy shoes recommended. We provide absolutely everything else.
