Draw a bird day at my Forest School session today. This amazing artist even created one on toast which she ate. #DrawaBirdDay #DABDay #DrawAPictureOfABirdDay
First 2 weeks of a new academic year / new term has been so busy. Still working from my own site but also within 3 schools @BraeheadSchool1 @ScotstownS @bridgeofdon Today I really feel lucky to connect and work with so many amazing children, families and other professionals.
Adult session today grounding, crystal grids, mandalas, meditation. Nature connection and self care at its best 💚
Three days of Easter clubs, each day different activities, kids and weather. The rain today while cooking on fire was tough. Scotland in April, we definitely have had variety of weather 😂
Recent site upgrades. Really starting to take shape with chill out space, opportunities for risk and climbing. Getting ready for lots of events to come this year 🏕️🧗♀️🌳🦔🔥
Sunday fun in the woods 🦔🔥. Perfect day letting families enjoy our site
This is me today getting lots of dates for sessions on my website shop. 2023 Fireflies is ready for you, let nature, play and fun be the way!!
Amazing outdoor mindfulness session this afternoon despite the wind. Great when kids embrace the skills and techniques that can help them thrive
Zip slide added to site. Obstacle course in progress. Don't know where the day goes when at site doing all this!! Waiting for chipper for tea as reward!😂😂😂
My first outdoor mindfulness session as Fireflies and I loved it! Children are our best teachers we explored bubbles as a breathing and mindfulness technique. Not only did we put our worries into bubbles we stamped away ones that were left on the grass. Review "I felt so calm"
Very true, we need to show them how, most of my fellow @OutdoorEdChat do a great job of this as part of sessions
Having a great time at @abdnhealthandw1 . Away to host a family meditation and mindfulness workshop. Wish me luck!!
I like this, too many children are being made to grow up too fast and lose play and in turn be on devices!

@firefliesnt P3/4 We had a great session from Jackie from Fireflies today! We got to play with lots of different equipment outside, some built dens, created a puppet show, explored for bugs and chilled in some hammocks! We had a great time!
