With a passion for connecting children with the world around them, The Den Kit Company’s latest product, the Hideaway Kit, has been developed in association with the National Trust.

The National Trust Hideaway Kit targets children age eight years and above. The Kit aims to inspire children to play imaginatively whilst also challenging their ingenuity and teaching new skills.

The new kit enables children to build their very own nature hide. Contained in a stylish canvas duffle bag is also a monocular to spot wildlife. Plus, a groundsheet, camouflage netting and a jotter book with a spotter sheet.

Commenting on the new kit is brand co-founder, Kay Miller. “We’re thrilled to be working with the National Trust on our first kit aimed at children over eight years.

“The design development journey has seen us work hard to source the very best tools and products focusing on sustainability and longevity. Our young road-testers have enjoyed hours of fun in the woods putting the kit through its paces.”

 

 

Research shows that physical activity and engaging with the great outdoors can help develop confidence and improve communication skills.

Also commenting is Clare Brown, head of brand licensing for the National Trust. “With such strong shared values, we are thrilled with the development of the National Trust Hideaway Kit.

“We know that as a nation, we are losing our connection with nature. This is really worrying for us as a conservation charity. If today’s children aren’t connected to nature, then who is going to stand up for our countryside and wildlife in the future?

“If we can strengthen our connection with nature through products such as the Hideaway Kit, not only can we inspire the next generation to have a love for the natural world, but we can help improve their wellbeing.”

A minimum contribution of £2,000 from the sale of Nature Hideaway Kits will support the National Trust’s conservation work.
