Do you struggle with kids bickering over toys? With battles to get the tidying up done?
Let me share something that's worked really well with us as a home educating family with 3 kids.

The struggle to fit in tidying after play is real- it often became a struggle and we didn't want that.NO more piles of toys simply thrown out of boxes and baskets and no one to tidy. We now choose THREE toys at the start of the day (this can be basket of cars/train track/wooden animals- not 3 single toys) check in with child that they are responsible for those 3. So far it has worked really well. Instead of saying it's tidy up time- I ask them what they chose to be responsible for and where it should go and it's tidied without the battle.

Rain will fall again and that means fantastic water runs, mud slides, mud pies and a chance for warming up round a campfire that the kids helped to make!!

Picture that warm chocolate in your hands, a fresh baked welsh cake from the fire and cosy sheepskins to sit on- above us on the shelter tarp- the pitter patter of raindrops..... For our Outdoor Explorers 6 months passport this will become a reality- not some far fetched dream! Come joins us for adventure and find your tribe!

I don't want to go out just for few hrs. It's too much hassle for such a short time...

We have some solutions-
1. Sandwhich your time with us by adding a skatepark play before and a beach picnic after your Outdoor Explorers session.
2. Join us for a longer session such as our Great gardeners growing group- a massive 3 hrs of nature based fun!! (TUES 12-3)

Why have I decided to get everyone together for 6 months worth of adventures this coming year?
Yes- you might have noticed, we've split the calendar into 2- Sept- Feb and Feb- July .

Two reasons-
1. Forest school was never meant to be a one and done deal- this allows families to really experience the changing seasons and grow to become part of a wonderful wild tribe of friends. 2. I like to know who is coming and when- rather than having a last minute scramble! Looking to find friends? Then come join us!!
