This week’s focus has been expressive art and design, which has sparked lots of creativity and excitement in the forest at Little Forest Folk Morden. We kicked things off with large scale self-portraits. The children saw their photos taped onto big sheets of paper and were invited to draw the rest of their bodies. It was wonderful to see the colours they chose to represent themselves and how uniquely each child approached the activity. 🌈After all that adventure everyone cooled down with some waterplay under the hose and ran and splashed under misty rainbows together. 

This week of holiday camp has been so fun! Everyone was buzzing with excitement after their Easter Holiday weekend and we kicked the week off with adventure walks up to Cannon Hill Common where we played parachute games, smelled tulips and visited 5 new little ducklings in the pond! After all that adventure everyone cooled down with some waterplay under the hose and ran and splashed under misty rainbows together. 

We made our own paper flowers, carefully folded their petals and then placed them in water to watch them slowly open up like real blossoms 🌸 It was such a magical moment! During this, we also learned about photosynthesis and even picked up a new song: “If you want to know how a plant grows, it takes water, air and sunlight!” 🎶
