Forest school pancake cafe
We've had a brilliant afternoon in the woods. Some children made a mud cafe and others helped to light and maintain a fire to cook pancakes for everyone.

Lost and found
The Bears have started their new book 'Lost and found' by Oliver Jeffers where the boy takes the lost penguin back to the North Pole on a boat. We decided to make our own boats during Forest Schools this afternoon. We split into 2 groups, one group made a large scale boat, big enough for the whole group to fit in. The other learnt about some of the tools that we use in Forest schools and started to make our own wooden boat. We started by sawing the wood using a bill hook. We then split the wood into two pieces, using a bill hook and mallet. Then we started to whittle the shape of the boat using potato peelers and sheeth knives. I'm really looking forward to continuing this project- there's going to be some masterpieces.
Unusual footprints
After break time, the children found footprints outside our classroom and a some things hidden under the mat in our classroom. There was a map, mayonnaise, a magnet, milk, and the letter 'm'. The children discovered that everything started with the 'm' and must belong to Max from our new story 'where the wild things are'. We then sorted other objects into things that begin with 'm' and things that don't . The Bears enjoyed making boats, like the private boat Max sailed in, and testing them in the water to see if they floated.
