Nature Tots Forest Fun

Join us exploring the woodland with Nature Tots. These pre-school sessions are aimed at getting out into nature with your little one whatever the weather. Each session starts with a story, then we'll be learning all about nature through play, crafts and other activities. Each session will explore a different part of nature on the reserve and discover who's living around us!

These sessions are based on the Forest School ethos of child lead learning through play. The sessions run in blocks to enable children to build community and give children time to benefit from long term regular sessions.

Each session ends with hot chocolate around the campfire.

What to wear

All our sessions take place outside. Come dressed for the weather and be prepared to get messy!

Please also bring a cup if you'd like your child to have a hot chocolate.
