We are very excited to announce we will be opening our Wandsworth Little Forest Folk this year. We’d love to invite you to our first Open Day on Friday 26th February 2016 to tell you all about it.

From 10am to 4pm our fabulous Wandsworth team will be available at the Naturescope centre on the common (next door to the Skylark cafe, just off Dorlcote Road) to tell you more about Little Forest Folk.

Our team of staff, managed by the energetic Lil Hansen along with our founder Leanna Barrett will look forward to meeting with all of our potential new families. Please come along to learn more about our concept, have a tour of our facilities, view our equipment and menus, meet our special team and understand why your children will utterly love to join us in our adventures.

Feel free to pop along at any time to join us as we will be there all day, however we will be holding information sessions at 10.30am, 11.30am, 12.30pm, 2.30pm & 3.30pm. To guarantee a place at an information session, you are welcome to book your family in, however we will do our best on the day to accommodate as many drop in families as we can fit into the centre.

On the day we shall be using the Naturescope garden area to give you a taste of the unique approach to play and learning that we offer in our predominantly forest based setting. You will have a chance to take a look at our equipment, chat to our staff about our concept and give your children a sense of how much fun we have at Little Forest Folk!

Chiswick - Celebrating Together at The Christmas Party

Thank you so much to everyone who was able to join us for our Christmas party last week. We had such a wonderful time celebrating together and it was truly special to share the festive joy with our forest families. For those who couldn’t attend, don’t worry - all gifts and creations have been carefully saved and we’ll make sure they are handed out as soon as we see you after the holidays.

Fulham - It's the most wonderful time of the year... 🎶🎄🌟Merry Christmas, everyone!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! ❄️🎄 At Little Forest Folk Fulham we have embraced the Christmas season and have been hard at play, designing and assembling all types of decorations and creations. You could even call us Santa’s little helpers! course, Christmas crafts! 🌿❄️

Morden - Pinecones, Pom Poms and Pipecleaners!

We've had a brilliant time in our last full week before Christmas! Our Morden Little Forest Folk-ers had a lovely time decorating pinecones for Christmas. Using pompoms and pipe cleaners, they turned natural treasures into colourful decorations. It was a simple, happy activity that combined creativity, fine motor skills and loads of communicative language while they played.

Putney Heath -This was another fabulous week in the forest! The children learned about the festival of Hanukkah🕎

children discussed the 8 days of Hanukkah and began making their potato latkes (a traditional Hanukkah treat). First, they shredded the potatoes, then the onion before adding a bit of flour, 1 egg and some salt. Then, they built and tended to the fire before firing off the potato pancakes! They were deeeeeelish! Shoutout to the little chefs!👨🏻‍🍳

Twickenham - Merry Christmas, Joyous Winter Holidays and Happy New Year!

Thank you all for attending our wonderful Christmas party on Friday, we all had a wonderful time welcoming you into the forest. We enjoyed roasting marshmallows around the fire and creating delicious gooey smores, and sipping on hot chocolate, coffee and Gluhwein (mulled wine)

Wimbledon - Winter Walks and an Abundance of Life & Nature

This week, we have enjoyed lots of fun adventure walks with our educators. One walk was themed all about what can we see? Our educators, Anamika and Olivia, created a musical tune for us to ask and answer this question! We headed out towards the doggy meadow and to our joy we watched many many dogs run round the meadow chasing and playing with each other, some of whom were taller than us! We spotted trees, grass, dogs, fences and even a horse! It was as we went through a holy tree tunnel and turned round, we saw a giant brown horse riding through the common, it was a great delight for many of us as horses are our favourite animals! On another adventure walk, our focus was the mushrooms

Wimbledon Village - A Very Dramatic Week!

Educators have used lots of ‘Panto’ language (“Oh no we haven’t!”) to make the camp feel festive and over the week, we have all thought about what ‘evil plans’ we all might have - all very panto-like! Paula’s evil plan was to give the rest of the staff a box of After Eights, with all the chocolates gone - but with the wrappers still in the box (VERY Evil!) and some of our wonderfully ‘naughty’ children thought about putting ice in Sam’s hood

Winkworth - Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Mrs Claus’ bakery has had a lot of customers this week too. Our Little Forest Folk-ers got to work to roll out the gorgeous cinnamon playdough before using different size cookie cutters to make the shapes. They then used natural materials to make the face and the buttons of our little cinnamon people.

Winkworth - Christmas Spirit!

This week at Little Forest Folk Winkworth we have embraced the Christmas spirit and got stuck into a number of imaginative and crafty activities to explore different object’s sizes, weights, lengths and capacity, as well as build things with a range of appropriate resource

Wimbledon Village - Caring For Ourselves and Our Environment (Copy)

This week, we have thought a lot about size and shape! We have considered how bear footprints and tracks might be ‘bigger’ or ‘smaller’ than ours.
