Some beautiful, magical artworks were made at the “Fantastical Forests” workshop I ran at half term. So good to see all the children so busy and engaged, imagining and creating their own fantastical forest worlds.

Spring is taking a while to get to Devon this year, so to brighten up the day we made some colourful, sensory spring pictures with bees and spring flowers.
