We’ve been plodding along organising the new Woodland Playgroup in the Forest of Dean. We will be meeting in Parkend, Gloucestershire on a Friday afternoon between 12:30 and 2:30 and for the time being the cost is £2 per family. We have use of a beautiful enclosed woodland garden, complete with stream for the children to explore and play in.

For more information please see the website http://www.foresttots.co.uk
Thanks for all the lovely ideas ladies, we settled on the name ‘Forest Tots’ in the end.

If there is anybody lurking on the boards in this area…....do come along and join in the fun!

Well done for setting it up, good luck with it all smile

I was just wondered (without wanting to hijack the thread) where have you advertised because I have been looking for a similar group in the midlands, we looked into Woodcraft Folk but were told they don’t do woodchips here so the kids are too young.
