A beautiful frosty morning at Robin Wood. The children discovered a tree spirit in the magic tree keeping watch over the wood. After investigation we found a note asking for the children's help to create more tree spirits and in return they could have a magic ribbon. The children took up the challenge and produced some wonderful creations using natural materials. We then thought about what we could use the ribbon for and after lots of discussion decided on making magic wands.
After a tool talk on how to safely use loppers, the children chose a stick and a ribbon from the magic tree and with support used the loppers to cut their stick. They then enjoyed decorating their wands.
Some of the children decided to make magic potions too!
The digging area was very hard this morning due to the sharp frost. The children investigated and worked hard to soften the area by adding water creating their very own cement pit. They had great fun taking turns jumping in to it!
