I mean, what a view!
The Yeo Valley and Woodland Trust team led a group of eager bloggers and children on a history timeline lesson of the area, a leaf hunt, bug hunt, mini den building, fairy wand making and photo opportunities in the most amazing floral garland whilst also keeping our tummies full with a lovely lunch and snacks - which of course included their delicious yoghurts and ice-cream.
For me it was great seeing Edith and Alban appreciating the great English countryside whilst enjoying each other's company; helping each other, working together and persevering at their activities. A personal heart melting moment was when shy girl Edith spoke to the wonderful guide, Les. Nothing for some children but quite a step for her.
Here are just some of our best bits...
