About
A forest playgroup in the Spitzwald, run by the parent-led association Waldkinder Basel, in rain or sun. Kids help pull a loaded handcart to the forest spot, then build, dig, climb and run a mud kitchen, with songs and seasonal nature finds along the way. On long days a cook makes a simple hot meal over a fire or gas stove. Parents are asked to pitch in with the association.
