Ooooh i like this!

Imagination is where curiosity begins 🌸

When children spend time outside noticing tiny details their imagination quietly comes alive. And from imagination grows creativity, confidence and a lifelong love of learning.

Sometimes the simplest moments in nature spark the biggest ideas. 🌿

Our forests are brilliant to explore all year round but please take extra care in winter. Not all roads, car parks and paths are treated so may be slippery in ice and snow.

We'll do our best to keep our sites open during winter but may need to close due to extreme weather. Please do not walk on ice-covered ponds, streams, rivers or lakes as the ice can be very thin.

Please follow any safety signs or diversions you see.

Time outside isn’t something to squeeze in after everything else—it’s something that supports everything else.

When we protect time in nature for our kids (and ourselves), we’re investing in calmer minds, healthier bodies, and deeper connection.

I love this quote so much (thank you, ) and find myself quoting it often!

Teaching kids to embrace every kind of weather is one of the greatest gifts we can give them.

Learning the fun of a rainy day helps kids grow resilient, adaptable, and open to finding beauty anywhere!

Who would want to say indoors when there are puddles to jump in, frosty mornings to admire, mud to squelch, and wind to blow our bad moods away?

Winter's coming... embrace it! ☃

It is crucial for children to engage in outdoor play ESPECIALLY in cold and snowy conditions.

Contrary to a common misconception, it's not the cold weather that makes us sick but rather viruses that make us sick. In fact, exposure to fresh air and outdoor environments during winter HELPS boost children's immune systems.

Playing outside stimulates physical activity, aiding in overall health and development. Additionally, sunlight exposure, even in colder temperatures, contributes to the production of vitamin D, essential for immune function.

Outdoor play provides a diverse sensory experience and fosters resilience, creativity, and emotional well-being, making it an integral part of children's overall health and development.

There's no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing. So make sure you get outside and play!

Forestry machinery is big! 🚜 And at Sence Valley an even bigger and faster harvester has started work this week. So please make sure you follow all safety signage, as even if you can't see or hear works taking place, the signs are there for a reason - to keep our visitors, staff and contractors safe. Thank you for bearing with us 💚
