We have been making mini dens out in the playground, we had to use what we could find on the ground.Β Working from the ground up, the children could build their own ideas from scratch, so they needed to be creative with the materials they use. We made a dinosaur den and thought about the different houses they may live in. We found that some made nests, and some lived in the forest. We all had a mini dinosaur to make a den for.
