Nature Tots, Sussex Wildlife Trust

Nature Tots is a Forest School programme providing a wonderful opportunity for your little ones to experience and learn from nature. Hands-on outdoor activities are themed around wildlife and the changing seasons. Tots are encouraged to tackle woodland craft skills for themselves, and gain a sense of achievement from successfully completing tasks such as using a bow saw or building a den. The sessions will encourage independent learning and team working – all of which will help to boost communication skills, problem solving, physical development and creativity. This is child-led learning and the role of the accompanying adults is to assist the Tots in doing as much of the task for themselves as possible.

We go outside rain or shine, so please dress for the weather and be ready to get wet and muddy, long trousers and stout shoes or boots recommended. Why not come along and give it a go!
