Wimbledon Village - See, Hear, Touch, Smell and Taste!

This week of sensory exploration was just what we all needed as we tried to make sense of the changing seasons. All week, our Little Forest Folk-ers have been activating and talking about their five senses, to broaden their understanding of the world around them, using their growing vocabulary to describe what they see, hear, touch, smell and taste.

After the heavens opened on us this week, we took the opportunity to jump in puddles! These puddles quickly became shark infested waters, and so the tables were turned with this activity, as we then did our best to avoid the puddles! Whilst our camp may have become dampened, our spirits certainly did not!

What a lovely week we have had in the sun! We’ve made the most of the wonderful weather, whilst also enjoying all the benefits of our shady haven on Wimbledon Common!

On Monday we saw ourselves having a Tiger come to Tea, yes you heard right… a Tiger came to Tea!!!. Our Little Forest Folk-ers loved scooping up tissue paper and sticks and stones etc to feed him so many different foods!
