'Out and About' Forrest School

I have been trying to find a suitable forrest school for the girls for a while but nothing had quite materialised for me.  When I heard of a new forrest school starting up near us and it being FREE it was like duas being answered.

The lovely spring weather has just begun and insha'allah I am looking forward to spending time outdoors with the girls, enjoying the sunshine, fresh air and learning about Allah's creations.

This is what we got upto in our first session:

Hunting for shades of green:

An excellent activity just running around the garden, looking at the different plants and textures and different shades of the colour green.  The kids loved being able to pull off pieces of leaves and stick them on their cards.

Pond Dipping (or Fishing in the pond as my kids called it):

        

 

We caught a massive rams horn snail:

 and many other little beasties in here........

We also had a go at some willow weaving follwed by a picnic,play in the park and a snooze in the car on the way home!!!

Fifi keeps talking about how she went fishing in the pond but couldn't play on the slide because it was too big for her.

                                               Looking forward to the next session.
