🐠Ocean, beach and pirate resources 🌊
Downloadable resources but with hands on learning ideas to help create a connection with the outdoors!
We’re not just a worksheet company! Our packs, resources and ideas are aimed at early years children who love exploring, getting outdoors to see and feel the world around them and enjoy learning something new.
I started teaching in 2007 and have loved putting all of my ideas into resources to share with you all. When you bring them to life with your own little ones, it makes my day ❤️
Comment ‘ocean’ if you’d like the link to the section on my website or you can click the links at the top of my page to head over there 🍃
Forever grateful for all of your support 💕

If you had an issue with this resource not showing in your downloads area on the website, can you let me know?
I have removed it and added as a new listing as the original was not working for some reason. Members can just redownload the new resource, but if you purchased it - I’ll just pop it into your account area (send me the email address linked to the purchase).
Thanks and apologies ❤️

•Brand rep search•
Would you like to be one of our brand reps? I’ve tried out brand reps with just a free membership before (but not sure this is fair anymore as so much work goes into it) and I’ve tried just doing paid collaborative posts. But this time, I would like a balance for our lovely new brand reps.
What you’ll receive:
🌳 Free lifetime membership
🍃A paid post at least once per month
🌿Shared collaborative posts that show on both of our grids
What we’re looking for:
🌸 Someone/setting that loves the outdoors
🌱Work with young children (or homeschoolers)
🌼Public Instagram account (I’m not interested in amount of followers)
🐞Have used one or some of our resources before
🪴Ability to take quality photos and create reels
How to apply:
✔️ Comment on the post about why you’d like to apply (if you DM me, please also comment on the post as I often lose messages amongst the hundreds I receive)
✔️Share this post to your stories/grid or a photo of you using one of our resources so I can see the type of content you create
*If you are already a brand rep for another online resource company or work for them, I ask that you don’t apply 💕Open worldwide 🌍
The search will end in one week on Tuesday 2nd of June. I am so excited to work with some of you 🍃

Happy Outdoor Classroom Day 🌳
Thank you to everyone who uses my resources and website to inspire their outdoor learning and play 🍃
Outdoor Classroom Day is a global campaign to get children exploring and learning in the outdoors. Around 30% of children in the UK don’t spend time outdoors everyday and outdoor play has plummeted by 71% in just one generation!
Let’s change that and get outdoors as much as possible ☀️ 🌧️ 🌳

The easiest craft to set up for World Bee Day 🐝
You just need pinecones, wool/string and paper.
The children can wrap the wool around the pine cones, working on their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. The pine cones turn into the sweetest bees that can be hung up or played with 🐝
Comment ‘bee activities’ if you’d like the resource which includes this and other nature inspired bee activities.
World Bee Day is on Wednesday 20th May 🐝
