Product Information

Communication, Language and Literacy: Our new nursery children will be continuing to recognise their names, respond to simple instructions, make more meaningful and controlled marks and participate in phonics phase 1 activities. Hedgehogs are one of our cutest garden visitors and you can support the hungry hogs in your garden by helping them build the energy they need when raising hoglets, and their fat reserves for their long winter hibernation. They rely on their sense of hearing and smell to find their food because their eyesight isn't very good.
