Fireflies Bushcraft Holiday club
Age: 8 - 14
Our February Half Term Holiday Bushcraft Club has some spaces!!
This is great for the children age 8+ to get out in the fresh air, away from screens for the day and to learn all things bushcraft!!
Our next Bushcraft holiday club ia daring February half term and is on the Wednesday 15th Feb, 10-3pm
🌳What do they do?🌳
🛠We have lots of tools such as saws, draw knives, hammers and nails, Mora Knives and drills for the children to learn how to use and get creative! ... with an unlimited supply of green wood to whittle. 🪓
🔥We have a campfire where the children can learn the primitive skill of fire lighting. They can have a go with a fire striker to see if they can get a spark, learn about different fire lays, learn about the fire triangle, practise lighting their own fire and challenging themselves to keep it going with various tinder and wood. We can also make charcoal and char cloth over the fire too! 🔥
🥞We will have some campfire snacks that the children can get involved with cooking if they like, or if they just prefer the eating part, the adults will cook for them 🥔
🪢We will have a selection of ropes which we will put up in the trees for the children to play on, climb and explore, and also the opportunity for children to learn some knots too! âž°ï¸
🎡We will have a nest swing up and also some rope to make a giant log swing together too! Along with some hammocks for laying in and having some mindful time under the trees ðŸ•
🪵We also have an abundance of loose sticks and wood, along with tarpaulins, paranoid and tent pegs so the children can also do some shelter and den building too. ⛺ï¸
🧵We will also have lots of nature crafts available for those who like arts and crafts, mud kitchen for imaginative play 🎨
Weather dependent, we often walk through over to their favourite "Big Hill" for lunch where we play some games and do lots of rolling down!
It's always such an AMAZING day! The children get lots of fresh air, burn off some energy, experience all things bushcraft and make friends! Whilst of course making memories 💜
