Welcome to Little Forest Folk Wimbledon

We use the 19th Wimbledon Scout Hut for parents to drop their children off before work and collect them at the end of the working day, which is only a mile away from our forest setting. Children are then transported on our Little Forest Folk minibus over to our green space base where they spend the majority of their day.

Our entirely fenced-off base is situated immediately adjacent to the wilds of Wimbledon Common, where children have free rein to explore, play and have unbounded adventures in a natural wild setting. Children are amused with activities outdoors the majority of the time, however we do on site have an 8 metre geodesic dome which is our base camp to which the children can always retreat for warmth, shelter and sleeps.

Our play is child-led and play-based. Children's imaginations are the only barrier to a day at Little Forest Folk and they are encouraged to run, imagine, create and reflect. Resources are primarily natural materials with some basic props provided to aid exploration.

Good nutrition is something that we hold in high regard. All our meals are home-made, simple, yet adventurous and are packed with enough energy to ensure the children can be active and happy all day. We enjoy a nutritious dinner every day and on Friday mornings we have Wild Cooking Fridays, exploring all things food related and honing our little chef skills.
