parent and child group

We endeavour to create a tranquil, warm atmosphere, where children and their carers share mornings of free play, seasonal songs and rhymes, ending with a visit to the 'magic garden' for some fresh air.

Children can let their imaginations unfold freely with a range of simple, beautiful toys made from natural materials. Meanwhile the adults can busy themselves with a craft activity. Before going outside, everybody sits down together for a delicious mid-morning snack of bread, spreads and fruits.
