Daan Forest Park, from five centimetres up

For us it’s a park for a stroll; for them it’s a whole forest. Roots are hills, leaves are roofs, and one path is a journey.

Their world is the area around Daan Forest Park: the shade, fallen leaves, the gaps between roots and the edges of the paths.

Places they often go

The shade and fallen leaves near home are where they gather materials; the gaps between roots keep them dry; the path edges are the most dangerous and the best for finds.

  • Leaf piles: roofing and bedding
  • Between the roots: shelter from rain
  • Path edges: busy with feet, so watch your step

The park changes every day

After rain the paths turn to puddles, gardeners turn the soil, and every season drops different leaves. Each change becomes a problem or a surprise in their lives.

There’s more

The forest has other places and animal friends. When the story gets there, this page will grow new paragraphs.
