Twickenham - Gingerbread & Shape Sorting

We have had such an exciting week in the forest!.

As the weather has taken a slightly chillier turn this week, we’ve all been excitedly getting into the festive spirit, and our favourite activity has definitely been making gingerbread people out of playdough. As usual everyone loved squidging and pressing the dough in their hands, and experimenting with all of the magical colours to create some very unique creations!

As the autumnal sun graces us with it’s presence increasingly less, it has been hoods up and wellies on in the forest this week as we went in search of one of our favourite past-times, muddy puddles! Children and educators all had lots of fun splashing in these together, and there was laughter and smiles all round!

The rain has well and truly come to say hello this week in the Wimbledon forest. This only means one thing for our little ones - more puddles! The excitement when we find a new puddle is amazing, the Little Forest Folk-ers do an incredible job of turn-taking for splashing and seeing who can get the most water up in the air.

Putney Heath - Building Obstacle Courses & Social Skills

This week in the forest we had a lot of fun with all the new mud. Obstacle courses were a big favourite this week, and the children especially enjoyed forming a queue and walking along the planks in single file. The mud made this a real challenge, but everyone showed great resilience and perseverance.
