THE Hambleton and Richmondshire Play Ranger Project comes to the Yorkshire Dales for half term, starting on Monday, May 25 in Reeth, near Richmond, until Saturday, May 30.

Children and parents can make kites, mud pies and petal perfume, build dens and become part of a fire tribe.

The project aims to bring play activities to rural areas that would not otherwise have any facilities.

The activities are aimed at children aged between five and 11.

Parents are encouraged to stay and play, but children under five must be accompanied.
