Spark imagination with this forest-themed art challenge! Designed for learners in EYFS, KS1, and Pre-K to 1st Grade, this open-ended drawing activity invites children to transform simple circles into creative forest-inspired images—from woodland creatures to leafy scenes.
Each circle becomes a prompt for imagination: Will it turn into a hedgehog? An owl? A mushroom? Children can explore shape, design, and self-expression while strengthening fine motor control and artistic confidence.
Ideal for:
Art and creative stations
Early finishers and calm corner tasks
Forest school or woodland topic work
Indoor play with an outdoor twist
Curriculum areas covered:

This low-prep, high-engagement activity is a perfect way to integrate nature-themed learning with art and self-expression. Great for a calm moment in a busy day or as part of a wider woodland topic.
