This woodland adventure book brings the activities and 'learning through nature' ethos of Forest School to the parents of nursery and primary school-age children. It's packed full of ideas, from making nature jewellery and whittling a bow and arrow to building a shelter and foraging for food; it also celebrates the Forest School philosophy of encouraging self-esteem, confidence and social skills through engagement with nature. As well as sharing Forest School's brilliant ideas for activities, this book encourages parents to follow aspects of the Forest School approach in the way they handle play sessions; in, for example, getting adults to engage actively while being careful to let the kids lead; in framing sessions with small rituals). Activity variations target different age groups, and there are ideas for small groups (for play dates, for example, or children's birthday parties) as well as things to do with just one or two children. While the book is aimed at parents, who are encouraged to guide the play, the activity instructions are written in a simple style so that children can read them too, and the illustrations are also intended to be enjoyed by children."--Publisher description. 505 0 $a Nature explorers -- Forest arts -- Survival skills -- Wildlife team games. 650 0 $a Outdoor recreation for children $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 0 $a Outdoor life $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 0 $a Outdoor education $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Nature study $x Activity programs. 655 7 $a Handbooks and manuals. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Worroll, Jane, $e author. 710 2 $a Forest School (London, England), $e issuing body. 941 $a 4 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909045731.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110075410.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20190314011057.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20180501010443.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=02CA2B3A4D0511E89A6C172A97128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
