I am thinking of putting my lo in an outdoor learning forest school a couple of days a week.
Would be most grateful of any reviews on Little Forest Folk in Wimbledons.
Many thanks

Can’t speak for the school in question but I’m a big fan of forest school for early years. Or actually for all ages but that’s a separate issue. Always such a difference in my son after he’s been outside in a forest school type play time.

Thank you. Does your child go to a regular forest school?

We are now on our second child at LFF Wimbledon and we're very happy with it (as are our children!). Both of them went full time, five days a week. Our school age child still gets excited to return for the holiday camps!

I figured they'll spend the rest of their childhoods in classrooms and behind desks, why not let them play in mud and climb trees and breathe fresh air for a couple of years?

Thank you so much for this. I believe there are 2 LFF in wimbledon - one near copse hill and one on Wimbledon Common. Which one did your children go to?

Both nurseries are on Wimbledon Common, though with different drop off/pick up points and sites on different parts of the common. Ours go to the Raynes Park site (the very first LFF site!).
