Unfortunately Nature Noodles is NOT running this morning due to the forecast and gust speed. We have a lot of dead wood and crack Willow at the site. Safety come first. 🌿💨🌿

🌿A less blustery session for the FRIDAY FOXES this morning …. mostly spent digging up grubs, worms and centipedes (all safely returned), having some exploring adventures and trying to make tin can pancakes …. LOVELY to see you all, have a wonderful weekend and see you next week 😊🌿.
Windy in the Willows
🌿💨IT was windy in the WILLOWS this morning giving us the chance to play with out tarps and create sails and dens, play with mud and water in the more sheltered part of the site, make ribbon sticks and have our NEW story before finishing up with a scattering of seeds.🌿
BIG thanks to those who braved the wind chill 💨.
🌿TOMORROW is the FRIDAY FOXES and it’s lookimg less breezy …. Iam thinking of making some mini tin can pancakes and charming some worms.🌿

What do I do??
🌿🌿THERE is a LOT that goes on BEFORE a Forest School session …. checking the weather, keeping equipment in good working order, planning activity possibilities, drying out gear, packing up gear and trying things out first.🌿🌿
Looking forward to embracing the rain and mud tomorrow WITH camouflage hide and seek, mud castles & moats, crafty bits n sticks, den building AND trying to make our own mini pancakes as activity possibilities this week building on our love of the MUD.🌿

Boats that Float
🌿A busy morning blowing bubbles and playing with parachutes in the wind, some playing with mud, exploring, hide n seek, hanging out in hammocks, Go Find It! and boat making. Phew! 😊🌿
Bog Baby
THIS week Thursday’s Nature Noodles were looking for some signs of (false!) Spring, climbing and exploring, some Bog Baby stories, MUD and some bow saw work ….. the FRIDAY FOXES spent the morning exploring the site and seeing what we could find for our Bog Baby …. SOME charcoal drawing & exploring, worm watching, mud, clay, tools AND a chance to meet the lovely Maria Cooke who is going to be joining us for some Thursday and Friday fun!🌿
Magic
🌿A BEAUTIFUL end to a beautiful couple of days with a busy morning following the magic stones, making dens and mud, tools and fire and a MAGICAL afternoon with magic stones leading us to the forest folk, making fairy homes, swings and slides, mud pies for the Bog Baby and bubbles with willow wands.🌿

February Adventures
🌿BIG thanks to everyone who came today for tapping into their inner Robin Hoods, making quivers, collecting sticks, exploring, hiding, making bows and arrows, climbing, making dens and JUST playing 😊 ….
