Forest School Parent Activity

Ms Burns set up lots of fun activities for the children to complete with their grown-ups. The activities included making scented bags, scented hapa zome, and threading stick butterflies. The children used their fine motor skills when harvesting the scented herbs and pinching and poking them into their material. The children also used hammers safely to form a pressing motion to imprint the scented herbs.

There were additional forest school activities out that the children know well, such as pinecone target shooting, the mud kitchen, and racking and den building. The children showed their grown-ups around the forest school area, showing them the activities they like taking part in. The children had opportunities to take part in all activities available.
