The day started off thundery and as we took our journey down into the woods, it had subsided.
The actual best place to be in the heat is under the canopy of the trees.
Such a playful, imaginative and unstructured time and the perfect connection to nature and our woodland friends.
Thanks to the wonderfully thoughtful & ultra resourceful Lizzie for joining us on another forest school adventure.

Thanks to those families who I managed to entice to play, using streamers and bubbles. See you next month at Bradford Moor Park.

End of half term treats. Campfire s'mores 😋
As our sessions are only 3 hours long, we tend to have a campfire as a treat time, every half term. This is because we want to spend most mornings in the woodland as unstructured as we possibly can. Playing, exploring & connecting with nature.

A place where there's no rush, a time to slow down and go at nature's connective pace. Nature Kindergarten.

There's always time for a spot of cooking in the mud kitchen. This 3 year old likes to get their hands dirty & stuck in.
Mud kitchens unleash creativity & imagination, provide sensory play, build fine & gross motor skills, help develop maths & science skills, boost language & social skills and are great for the immune system.

Hedgehog hill, it has always been a popular spot at Nature Kindergarten. We named it that as we believe hedgehogs live right underneath it 🦔🦔🦔We climb up it, roll down it, stand at the top & sing, run down it and dig it, such an important part of our environment.

In the woods, we don't just learn; we become. Giving our little explorers the space to experiment, the freedom to play, and the air to breathe.
