November term stay and play group now on sale!
We are very excited to announce that our gorgeous playgroup is on sale for next term: 24th February - 31st March 2025 (6 weeks). We are based at the beautiful Westbury Wildlife Park Foundation. This is an idyllic new wildlife sanctuary and woodland area in Westbury-on-Trym. You can find it on Trym Rd, Bristol BS9 3ET.
We will be running two sessions on a Monday, from 9:15am-10:30am and 10:45am to 12pm
We accept termly bookings only. Tickets for additional children/ siblings can be purchased at a cheaper rate. Please message playgroup@littlefoxesforest.co.uk for a sibling code. Our sessions involve a range of exciting forest activities for your children to get involved with. We always cook around the fire with treats ranging from marshmallows to pasta and homemade bread. Children will have the opportunity to:
-
Play in the mud kitchen
-
Do natural painting
-
Play with our small world toys and in the natural construction area
-
Go bug hunting
-
Explore the woodland trail
-
Enjoy reading in a sheltered reading area.
We also run an adult led activity in addition to these each week which can be anything from woodwork, bird watching, Gruffalo hunting and so much more. Hot drinks are available for adults and children throughout the morning. At the end of the session parents, carers and children all get together for singing and sometimes parachute games. We hope you can join us in Westbury Wildlife Park Foundation soon for some woodland fun. Add yourself onto the mailing list by popping us an email with your child's name and your contact details.

what to wear
This is a fairly open area of forest so if it's raining full wet weather gear and wellies is advised. In the summer it can also be useful to come in full length trousers to avoid midgy bites and scratches.

There's treats for parents as well as children at our playgroup. Hot chocolate, tea and coffee is available. Children always enjoy a snack cooked on the fire.
