Tales and Trails
Blossoms, sunshine & mindful moments… What a joy it’s been to share this season with all our forest schoolers, big & small! From muddy hands to creative hearts, we’ve embraced the magic of nature; painting tulips, listening to stories, and gathering around hot chocolate and opening to simple joys.As we step into the Easter break, may we all take a moment to be present with the life unfolding around us. The warmth of the sun, the song of the birds, the whisper of the breeze through the trees… A gentle reminder that we are always held by Mother Earth.Wishing you a beautiful, heart-open holiday filled with rest, wonder, and connection.🌼 Booking is OPEN for Preschoolers’ Sessions – Next Half-Term 🌼Our Friday group is fully booked, but we have spaces available for our Wednesday morning sessions (10–11:15 a.m.) in Wing, Bucks.

🦊 Little Treasures, Big Discoveries 🦊Last week, something truly special unfolded… Each child began their own nature journal—a tiny book of wonder, filled with sketches, leaves, and little treasures found along the way. With fresh eyes, they wandered through the woods, spotting catkins swaying in the breeze, buds stretching towards the light, tiny earthworms wriggling in the damp soil. They paused to feel the rough bark of trees, the softness of moss, the whisper of the wind on their face.And as they noticed, so did their grown-ups. Parents often tell me that coming to Tales and Trails changes the way they walk through nature—slowing down, seeing through their children’s eyes, remembering how to marvel at the little things.These journals are just the beginning. They’ve gone home, ready to be filled with more discoveries on family walks, creating a lifelong love of noticing, of wondering, of being present in nature. If you'd love to experience this magic with your little one, we still have a few spaces for Wednesday morning session on April 2nd (£12 per child, perfect for a trial!). After Easter, we return to half-term block booking—keep an eye on your inbox for details!What tiny treasures have you or your little one noticed this week? I’d love to hear! 🦊👇#TalesAndTrails #ForestSchoolMagic #NatureJournals #SlowDownAndNotice #LittleExplorers #ParentingWithNature ... See MoreSee Less

Earthworms don’t have eyes, but they can sense light and vibrations through their skin! This helps them stay safe underground and avoid predators.The more we observe nature, the more we understand how everything is connected. 🌿 How do you like to connect with nature during the Full Moon? 🌕✨ Tell me below! ⬇️"#ForestSchoolFun#WildAndFreeChildren#LearningThroughNature#NatureBasedEducation#OutdoorClassroom#HandsOnLearning#WildLearning #SoilLovers#CompostCrew#WormsAreAwesome#SoilHealthMatters#EarthKeepers#TinyButMighty#RaisingWildlings#NaturePlayMatters#ConsciousParenting#MindfulMamas#OutdoorParenting#LetThemBeLittle#NatureKidsUK#OutdoorLearningUK#ForestSchoolUK#WildSchoolingUK ...
