Little Explorers

Hands down the best weekly activity I did with my kids in that precious time before they started school.

Make memories with your toddler or pre-schooler in the magic of the woods!

'Little Explorers' is an exciting new approach to 'parent and tots groups' held in an outdoor woodland environment! A group for children from 18 months to four years, incorporating messy play, stories, crafts, and all the fun of the forest! Each week provides an opportunity to explore the woods, swing in our hammocks, take part in craft activities, and enjoy the freedom of nature!

See dates & times

We loved exploring the woods together, making natural crafts, sharing stories, learning about nature, experiencing the changes in seasons and being part of the group each week.

What to expect

You and your little ones will spend one-and-a-half hours in the woods, enjoying crafts, stories, and play, with a real campfire for toasting marshmallows!

Parking and access to Rollins Wood, Marple

Where to park for Rollins Wood

You can park anywhere you can find a space on Compstall Road or on the housing estate opposite.

How to access the woods from Compstall Rd entrance

Remember there is NO driving down this track or parking in the little community car park, please only enter by foot. Look for the A frame 'welcome' sign and follow the yellow flags.

They came home each afternoon absolutely buzzing, looking healthy and full of vitality after spending so much time outdoors. Both of them conquered their fear of bugs in those four days, and the experiences they had have already become part of everyday life.

Give the gift of connection to nature

Gift vouchers are now available for ‘Little Explorers!

The perfect experience to give as a Christmas or birthday gift.

I have loved having a chat with other like minded parents and catching up with Esther each week and there is no doubt that Little Explorers has enriched all our lives.

Additional Information

Refunds

Safety and Risk Assessment

Safety and Risk Assessment

Refunds are not available, but you can still transfer your bookings to another date, as long as you transfer up to 3 days before the event that you originally book on to. 


If it is 3 or less days until your original booking, then unfortunately it is too short notice to transfer. We feel that we keep our prices low in comparison to other Forest School companies who charge double and more. We also allow you to transfer your booking if you can’t make a session that week. The admin of refunding bookings would mean we would have to raise our prices in future.


Safety and Risk Assessment
