Country Life Fair: The Kids Zone
Children will be spoilt for choice at the Country Life Fair at Fulham Palace


There won’t be a dull moment for children at The COUNTRY LIFE Fair (September 27–28) if the packed programme of activities and talks, which has just been released, is anything to go by.
Younger visitors will be making a beeline for the Showring, which will be home to ferrets, falconry and Kennel Club dog displays.
And over in the Kidsrome, they can get their hands dirty planting an edible window box or making corn dollies. Tickets start at £23 per person (children under 12 are free). To book, telephone 0844 453 9268 or visit www.countrylifefair.co.uk
