Kent Life in Sandling near Maidstone: Easter events

Let the children swap the classroom for cuddle corner and enjoy some fun on the farm during the holidays.

Kent Life Heritage Farm Park says families can meet the adorable newborns including lambs, piglets and kid goats every day of the Easter holidays between March 30 and April 15.

Children can even have a go at bottle feeding some themselves.

There will be owl flying demonstrations taking place daily at 11am and 3pm and families can also visit the hatchery to learn more about the arrival of the chicks and how to identify a fertilised egg.

There are also all the regular Kent Life attractions including indoor and outdoor play areas, a chance to meet the farm's smaller animals including the guinea pigs and rabbits in cuddle corner or hop aboard the land train for a ride around the site.

For a small additional charge you can get creative in the Paint-a-Pot studio where children can create the perfect Easter gift or enjoy a donkey ride.

There are also a number of shows taking place in the Big Top Arena at 11.30am, 1.30pm and 3.30pm each day.

These include Flip's Puppet Show, magic shows, the BubbleJo Bubble Show, Punch and Judy and an animal show.
