The Big Picture: Outdoor fun for under-5s

Nature Tots, a new six-session parent and toddler group focusing on engaging under-fives in wildlife and outdoor activities, has been launched by the Sussex Wildlife Trust.

Based on the Forest School programme, the sessions will take place on the Trust's 15-acre nature reserve at Woods Mill near Henfield, using a fire circle as the central focus.

Each session will help children to develop basic bushcraft skills, toast marshmallows, and learn woodland songs and games. All activities are linked to the seven areas of learning.

Sessions will run every Wednesday morning from 11 September. For further details, visit www.sussexwildlifetrust.org.uk/naturetots or call Katie Parker on 01273 492630.
