Tail tales

In honour of today’s National Badger Day, the #Blogtober

18 prompt is Forest Creatures.  Rather serendipitously the mini ones afternoon drama group provided appropriate inspiration as one of the leaders handed out these fabulous clip-on tails.

A fox, badger and wolf design, the catch

ing tails provided a spirited game of chase.

Apparently the tails are from Flying Tiger Copenhagen so I migh

t just be paying them a visit to get our own set too!

Forest creatures weren’t the only animals the young actors embodied today as Clare Bevan’s poem Queue for the Zoo was also used as insp

iration and saw them growling like tigers, skipping like hares and jumping as high as a kangaroo.
