What a spectacular week we have had. The weather has been glorious and the children have delighted in the budding leaves and spring flowers.
Twickenham - “La Fheile Padraig sona Dhuit”!
Twickenham - "Cave Baby"!
The Very Hungry Caterpillar came to the forest this week as we read the story by Eric Carle and talked about the life cycle of the butterfly. One of our super educators created an amazing caterpillar head with cardboard and paint and provided a variety of fruit which we then enjoyed feeding to the caterpillar head through his large round mouth. Naming of the fruit in turn led to discussions around good food for caterpillars and children to help them all grow and be healthy.
Twickenham - Pancakes and Prose
Twickenham - Superheroes and Statisticians!
We have had a wonderful week. It’s been a very busy month of birthdays with children turning four. This week we had two boys turning 4 and the forest was full of superheroes in celebration. Masks and capes, costumes and muscle flexing were all part of our lively day in the crisp chilly spring sunshine.
Twickenham - Numbers, Weights and Volume!
It has been a Marvellous week of mathematicians calculating their way around the forest, counting pinecones, gathering sets of twigs, and washing and balancing stones into wobbly towers. Our creative team of educators have devised all sorts of games to encourage the development of our children’s knowledge of numbers, volume, weights, and shapes.

Our happy Little Forest Folk-ers have delighted in frolicking in the autumn forest this week. Gathering up armfuls of dry leaves and tossing them up into the air, filling boxes and then climbing in to wiggle around comfortably and creating nests for themselves, as well as using leaves as canvases for their creative painting,
