Dear Forest Families,
As the children embrace the chill of winter, our little adventurers have not let the weather dampen their spirits. Wrapped up in cozy layers, they’ve been racing around the forest, playing timeless games like ‘What’s the Time, Mr. Wolf?’, their infectious laughter fills the air, turning our outdoor haven into a playground of joy.
Exploring Chiswick Park and Garden: A Journey of Discovery
The children have embarked on mesmerizing adventure walks around Chiswick Park and Garden, venturing into the heart of nature. With wide-eyed wonder, they’ve explored every nook and cranny, stumbling upon icy puddles that spark fascination. By the pond, they’ve observed birds in their natural habitat, learning about the delicate balance of our ecosystem.
But it’s not just nature they’ve encountered on their walks. The children have had the unique opportunity to connect with the park caretaker and gardeners, unravelling the secrets of their roles in maintaining the beauty of our garden. This exposure to different professions has spark of curiosity in our little learners, expanding their horizons beyond the forest.
Building Community Bonds: A Day with Caretakers and Gardeners
Interacting with the caretaker and gardeners has been an enriching experience for our young explorers. They’ve learned about the meticulous care that goes into preserving the magic of our garden and the vital roles these community members play. Through these encounters, our children have not only gained insights into various professions but have also developed a sense of connection to the community around them.
Creative Adventures: From Hairdressers to Pirate Ships
Our little adventurers have transformed their imagination from makeshift hairdressers to pirate adventurers on a sandy sea. The children have enjoyed the whimsical delights of giving manicures, painting colourful nails on cardboard, and letting their creativity run wild. These activities not only bring joy but also cultivate fine motor skills and foster artistic expression. On the sandy shores of our playground, little pirates have set sail, their hands digging into the sand to construct grand castles. Their imaginations have turned our play area into a vast sea, where they take charge as daring sailors navigating their boats through uncharted waters.
Wishing you all warmth and joy in this winter season.
