It was great to meet everyone and to spend some quality time together. Stick man making, bubble blowing, treasure hunts, eating cake and drinking gallons of coffee made for an ideal way to spend a Saturday morning.&#8221; said Mr Dougan, one of the thirty or more dads who went along.<\/p>\n<p>The children in the Foundation Stage at Aldenham Prep school enjoy a session in the woods every week and it is popular day with all the children and staff. Wearing their all in one suit the children always return exhilarated by the experience.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs Gocher, Head of Aldenham Prep School, said \u201cit was wonderful that so many dads came along in their wellies ready to get stuck in to all the activities.
