LITTLE Edie Cox learned some valuable cooking skills making mud pies at a free forest school.
Her mum Emma took the two-year-old along to the class near Wheatley on Tuesday, where she also got to make crayon rubbings of tree bark on muslin.
Organised by Oxford charity Heart of the Wildwood, it is one of the many free classes at The Maple Tree children’s centre on Littleworth Road.
Mrs Cox, 35, said: “It was lovely, we made mud pies, making textures with the leaves, and just enjoyed being in the great outdoors.
“She loves that sort of thing, she’s a very adventurous two-year-old.”
She said when Edie got home to their house in Wheatley she proudly presented her crayon bark rubbing to her dad Matthew.
Mrs Cox, also mum to four-year-old Lyla, said she only found out about the class when she spotted an advert for it at the centre. She said: “I don’t think people use these free resources enough.
