Go explore
Springtime in the UK is known for having lots of different types of weather! Usually, it does start to get a bit warmer and it is a good time to get out of the house and start exploring. Look at links below for some ideas.
Remember to ask an adult's permission to explore.

Challenge: Magical woodland story

Spring is an amazing season. It gets warmer, sunnier and different types of plants and flowers begin to grow.
We also also see many more animals appear during spring.
Write an adventure or fantasy story set in a magical spring woodland.
Story starter:
The magic has been lost from the woodland. The beings that live there need to find it and get it back!
Use the image below as inspiration.
Think about:
- What does the woodlands look like this time of year? What spring flowers can you see?
- Who are your characters?
Are they mythical creatures like fairies, pixies and trolls?
