So many hugs, a few tears but above it all,deep gratitude to have known so many beautiful souls through my work.

These past few months, we have found so many fossils in the stream! At least a dozen ammonites but also some fossilised bones and teeth... We find something almost every week. All that rain of the past 8-10 months must have exposed a layer in a nearby field and they are finding their way into the stream. Fascinating! #learningthroughplay #learningthroughplaying #learningthroughnature #fossilhunting #FossilDiscovery #fossilhunt #outdoorlearning #somuchtodiscover #somuchtoexplore #forestschoollearning ...

Here is a peg, do your magic and turn it into a bug 🐛🐜🐞🦗🪲Few instructions, big imagination! I never make an example for children to "copy" or "aim to" because they have their own ideas about what they want to do and how to do it if we give them time and space to explore, try, adjust, evolve ... They always take the activity to places I hadn't thought of, they are the teachers! 😍Fostering creativity and confidence! #forestschoolbuckinghamshire #forestschoolideas #outdoorplay #outdoorchildhood #sensoryplayideas #sensoryplaytime #natureplay #natureplaymothers #outdoorplaygroup #naturecrafts #naturecraftforkids #becreative #fostercreativity #fosterselfconfidence ...
