Nature's Way with Bex
Forest School Stay and Play
Parent and toddler sessions every Friday
A slow morning in the woods for little ones and the grown ups who love them.
Join us on the farm for a relaxed Forest School session where toddlers can explore the outdoors at their own pace.
Think muddy hands, tiny discoveries, woodland crafts and plenty of fresh air. We finish around the fire with stories and toasted marshmallows.
These sessions are for pre school age children accompanied by a parent or carer. Expect a mix of child led play and gentle guided activities, shaped by the season and whatever the children are curious about on the day.
