Forest School Resources for Parents and Educators
At Little Wise Owls Outdoor Learning, we provide a comprehensive selection of forest school resources designed to support both parents and educators in fostering children’s connection with nature. Our resources are carefully curated to encourage hands-on learning, curiosity, and confidence in outdoor environments.
For parents and caregivers, our resources include practical guides, activity ideas, and tips for extending forest school learning at home. Families can explore nature walks, seasonal crafts, simple science experiments, and storytelling activities that complement our outdoor curriculum. These tools help children build essential life skills such as problem-solving, creativity, and resilience while deepening their appreciation for the natural world.
Educators benefit from a range of professional development materials, including detailed lesson plans, risk assessment guides, and forest school best practices. These resources support teachers in creating safe, engaging, and developmentally appropriate outdoor learning experiences. By combining structured guidance with flexible, child-led activities, our materials help educators adapt lessons to suit each child’s interests and abilities.
Our resource library also includes activity kits, printables, and documentation tools to track children’s learning and progress. This supports meaningful engagement between home and school, giving parents insight into their child’s daily discoveries and achievements.
At Little Wise Owls, we believe accessible, high-quality resources are essential to nurturing a lifelong love of learning and a strong connection to the environment. Explore our forest school resources and discover the tools that make outdoor learning fun, educational, and impactful for children, families, and educators alike.
