Little Sticks

Little Sticks is an Inclusive Kindergarten Group for a parent or a member of support staff to attend with a child. We use lots of play in a woodland setting to enable children to build resilience, improve self-esteem, develop gross and fine motor skills, learn about the natural world, build emotion regulation, reduce their level of arousal and process events in their lives through play, and much much more.

Sessions will emphasise free play and exploration. We will also have a planned activity which children can join in with as much, or as little, as they choose.

We have a limited number of enhanced support spaces which means our Psychologist is on hand to carry out observations, develop a support plan and help the parent or support worker to put this in place. Skills and strategies can therefore be carried over into other settings to support the child’s progress at home, school and in the forest. To discuss enhanced support please contact emma@sticksandstonesfs.com

We Recommend

• Water proof clothing and wellies all year round to keep the bugs and dirt out!
• For those who like to get really messy, a change of clothes for the way home might be needed!
• Not having the right gear should never be a barrier to coming along, so please let us know if you want to borrow some spares.
• Please bring a snack and a drink, its thirsty work in the woods!
