\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\nBefore we left we read a story about hedgehogs and the children learned that they can make nests, eat insects and climb walls. They pretended to be hedgehogs on the journey and through their exploring in the woods.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\nSome children used the clay and teasels to create their own hedgehogs, then build nests for them out of sticks and leaves. Others worked together to develop the den out of large sticks.<\/p>\n
