Bluebell Woods by fishers

Bluebell Woods

As my Dad is visiting for a few days we decided to show him what could be found in the woods close to our house. This is a picture of part of those woods, which are kept by the National Trust. As you can see here there were so many bluebells it looked like a whole carpet of them.

Along with the beautiful bluebells they also have a notice board, which has four suggestions of what your children (or you!) might want to do whilst in the woods. These are: Climb a tree, build a den, roll down a big hill and balance on a fallen tree. This is taken from the National Trusts list of 50 things to do before you are 11 ¾ years old. The full list can be seen here: https://www.50things.org.uk/

@padlock This picture was taken in Bradenham Woods, near the village of Bradenham in Buckinghamshire. Although my Dad is ticking things off his list I think it's actually growing with the amount he keeps adding to it! (We will keep you in mind for the decorating!) - Louise

@gillg Thank you Gill. I think these ones are about at their best. I did the walk about 2 weeks ago and there were no where near as many, but in parts of the woods some of them are looking past their best now. Good luck in finding some! - Louise
