We’ve welcomed some milder weather this week whilst observing the surrounding oak trees shedding the last of their leaves, creating wonderful ‘forest snow’ for us to marvel at. The chestnut brown hues that have arrived to decorate the ground this season have been the muse of lots of sweet, chocolate themed creations from the mud kitchen.

We ended last week with some exciting weather! There was rain, sun, wind and even some hail, which the children enjoyed observing whilst eating their snack under the tarp. The children also enjoyed spotting some icy leaves and frozen puddles in and around the forest, whilst we spoke about the weather and season change.

At the beginning of the week the children were fascinated by how the chillier temperatures changed the outdoor environment. There was lots of frozen puddles which were so enjoyable to break and many frosty tree stumps perfect for making glove prints. With the colder weather the educators have had to ensure children stay warm.
