Encounters in the wild
This is definitely one for the more adventurous children or parents or carers.

Essentially you are going to be painting a large "mural" of a nature scene, together with many smaller cardboard creatures which you can move about on the scene.

For example, you might paint a woodland scene, with large and smaller trees and bushes, a small pond or stream, as well as a bit of open sky. You also need to paint a few cut out shapes of animals like mice, rabbits, foxes, badgers, cats, dogs, birds, and a few insects and a few people on a picnic.

You can then have the fun of arranging the animals into groups.
